Tap at Urban Space. Aroma coffee, deep roasted notes, but no trace of harshness. Instead unusual fruity notes are evident, with blueberry and generally blueberry pie coming to my mind. Deep dark colour, stable brown head. Incredibly rich flavour, offering all there is in coffee combined with all there is to black ale, and I’m talking about the good stuff, mind you. Bold, but pristine coffee, blueberry, hint of dark chocolate. Wonderful.

Tap at Le Senk. Aroma is mostly hoppy, light clove beneath. Lightly lightstruck and/or oxidized. Hazy yellow to golden colour. Stable white head. The hops reveals itself fully in the taste. Fruity, citrusy, berries. Works really well with the weizen base. However lightstruck/oxidation (I can not decide which) is still present. That is a problem I would work on, since it somewhat ruins the drinking experience.
