Roast and light coffee. Clear mahogany pour with pretty good initial mocha head. Some nut, some caramel. A light hint of lemon. Pretty solid balance. Easy drinking but pleasant. Also better than many of the other eibauers I've recently tried. Bottle.

Costo box can: pours clear yellow gold with white head. Aroma is straw/hay, very bready. Taste is lightly bitter. On the sweet side. Taste is kind of dirty. Cannot say that this is tasteless. I can say it is not great.
