Dark brown coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall light brown head that stays afloat nicely. Aroma of very sweet caramelised sugars, toffee, molasses and brown sugar notes with little else. Light-bodied; Very funky and sweet molasses and brown sugar flavours show at first with a big nutty and earthy flavour with some light rustic notes and little else but the sugars and soft malt notes. Aftertaste shows molasses, grain, toast, malt, oatmeal and some funk with bread and rustic flavours, but the sweetness persists and is stronger than anything else, by far. Overall, a very mild and super soft, but super sweet beer with little malt and character and much lower complexity than I was expecting. Overall, a decent enough beer as this was at least 'dark' and showing some sweetness, but much lighter than I expected and much sweeter than I was hoping for with a bunch of residual sugars that seem to last for a long time. Nice enough to try as one of my last here in the country. I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from Jumbo [supermarket] here in central Santiago (Costanera Centre), Chile for CLP1,490 on 09-August-2022, sampled with my wife and three kids here on the streets of Santiago, Chile on 14-August-2022 before leaving for back home in the USA.
