Bottle, 0.5l. Deep brown, almost black pour, no head. Nice on the nose, roasted malt, coffee, cocoa, bready and fruity notes in the background.

Light body, medium carbonation, lively. Average mouthfeel and texture, lightweight, somewhat watery, fizzy, prickly, easily drinkable. Nicely balanced roasty bittersweet taste. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, chocolate. Toasted caramel, brown sugar, light sticky. Bready notes, forest fruits, raisins. Lingering roasty bitterness. Medium lasting finish, roasty, dry, bitter.

Lightweight but quite tasty. Solid stout.

Tap at Craft & Draft, Zagreb. Murky dark brown body, thick off-white head, small, going down fast. Nutty, dry, lightly caramelly, mild grape touches, vague funk, might be the tap. Lean, dry, clean nutty taste, smooth, lightly caramelly, clean finish, lightly herbal-bitterish. This is pretty good stuff!
