Can 0,5l from Sri Lanka, many thanks to my sister Eva. Black colored beer. Aroma of apples, plum jam, plum liquer, many tones of chocolate, roasted malt, alcohol. Similar taste- fruitiness, chocolate, roasted grains, alcohol, sweet, full bodied.
Really not bad, but it isn’t exactly my style.

BOTTLE 65CL from Ned33137. Bright yellow body. Malty and bready aroma with hints of lemony hops. A conventional lageresque taste, some malt sweetness, light lemony hops. Clean and mellow. Not bad.

Bottle. A- Red wine, blackberries, mixed berries, subtle chocolate. A- Black color, black liquid, brown head. T- Red wine, blackberries, balanced, subtle dark chocolate. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, long complex finish. O- Talk about a great beer! I was expected a dry bitter cocoa and watery like stout but this was not it! This was superb! It felt more like a good red wine blended with berries and dark chocolate than anything else. So very complex and balanced....oh, and not to mention, only $3.99 for a bomber! For that kind of price I should’ve bought a case had I know it would be this good.

This is exactly what you want from a stout. Dark with a good head, strong chocolatey aroma, a touch of fruit coming through with a dryness (from the malts, maybe?) to ensure it doesn’t become sickly. Delicious.
