Thank you Elmanana+1! 355 ml. can sampled @ “Wish you were Adam Chandler” tasting. BBF 06/06/15 it seems, yikes. Dark brown, little head. Nose is big old thinned grainy coffee, thin chocolate syrup, cheap sweetness. taste is thin grainy sweet coffee, toffee, herbal, artificial coffee & chocolate, burned cacao. Too thin & old sees, probably neat fresh. It’s a shame this one & he got only recently in a trade.

Can. Opaque black - brown beer, decent pale tan head. Palate is airy, mildly dry and has surprisingly modest carbonation. Mellow but tangy dark malts, mild dark malt cream. Tangy ripe fruits, some prune. Mellow hop spice. Pine. Ripe fruit finish. Tasty if a little ripe.

Can drank in LA - picked up in NOLA. Pours clear yellow with a creamy, white head. Pleasant notes of crispy cereal and biscuits in the aroma, hints of hay, lemon. Light-medium sweet flavour with low bitterness, more cereal, pale grain. Light bodied with average carbonation. Pretty clean on the finish, more biscuits, lemon peel, light bitter straw. Really tasty pils.
