Medium, beige head over jet-black beer. Tobacco, green herbs, a tad soapy, sunflower seeds or sunflower oil. Liquorice, smoked meat, estery, bit ashy. Again a (very) oily impression, strange meaty esters. Quite well-bodied, warming, slick. Less impressive than when tasted for the first time (+/_ 20 yrs. ago...); bit stomm a pretty pleasing, if oily stout.

(bottle as Sinha Stout) Beautiful looking beer - very black (but not cloudy) with big tan head. Aroma a bit restrained: roast malt, chocolate, coffee, hints of smoke. Full bodied with lovely velvety mouthfilling carbonation. Smooth, even a little sticky. Flavour is rich, but not intense : chocolate, coffee, toffee. Finish is an excellent mix of bitter dark roast flavours with some hop bitterness. Overall an excellent beer.

From a 330ml bottle on 30/12/2011 (labelled Sinha Stout with the ABV listed as 8.8%). Pours close to black with a biggish head which disappears quickly. Has a big aroma of dark fruit (prunes, berries, raisins) and chocolate.This is replicated in the flavour, with sweet raisins and milk chocolate particularly prominent. Has a slightly creamy texture and the carbonation is spot on. This is a crackingly good sweet stout. Big ups to the Sri Lankans for this one!

Wasn’t expecting much from this beer but it turned out surprisingly great. Touch of mocha and some caramel tones. Strong alcohol. Great foreign stout - one of the best I’ve had in teh foreign category.
