przyjemny, kremowy zapach, sporo kawy, karmel, lekka wędzoność. pachnie trochę jak kawowy jogurt. kolor mocno ciemny, prawie czarny, piana dość trwała, bura. w smaku pełne, gorzkie, palone, lekko słodkie, trochę podobne do alkoholowych pralin w czekoladzie. nie czuć dużej ilości alkoholu. ciekawe zdecydowanie.

Bottle from Tesco’s (7.7% not the 8.8 listed here). Nose is strongly metallic, some coco, lactose and coffee giving a latte note beneath the metal. Taste is lactose, leading to malt, latte, soft chocolate in a rich smooth finish which hits a slightly thin bump near the end. Mouthfeel is good. It’s a decent high strength stout with a poor nose, but this is a style that in the hands of American’s produces some of the world’s best beers.

Bottle 330 ml from supermarket in Zagreb. Pours black with tan head. Roasted malts, some chocolate and dried fruits. A bit of surprise for me, not bad at all.

Beers of the World country 8: Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
"The beer is black in colour with a thick brown head. It tastes rich with hints of chocolate and coffee before the taste of the roasted barley kicks in towards the end. The sweetness of the chocolate stays throughout the aftertaste. A really nice way to break away from the usual lagers I taste for this blog." - beersoftheworldproject.wordpress.com

Bottle. Black, no head. Heavy textured stout with a dreary roasted and sweet malt character.

Bottle shared with tderoeck, many thanks! Golden colour, white foam, low carbonation. Very sweet with notes of candy. Very thin body, weak aroma. Watery, very easy drinkable.

Courtesy of & thanks to tderoeck. 33 cl. bottle sampled @ “Procrastinated Spontaneity /…………/ 2 Boekjes” tasting @ Gent. Pale golden with little white bubbles. Nose is very cheap honey, apples, sweeteners and a metallic edge. Taste is awful, rubbing alcohol taste and sensation, this stuff burns in your throat, rubbing alcohol and cheapest honey around, touch sugar, hay, lingering rubbing alcohol sensation in your throat aftertaste. Fizzy, oily and a bit watery. Truly awful stuff, only fit for getting terribly drunk as intended I suppose.
