Bottle @ weekly tasting shared with Joes and Dutchdrebus. Dark brown color, small to average sized quite quickly diminishing off-white to beige head. Smell and taste malts, sweet, raisins, some kind of bitterness, oak, wood, tannine, a bit dry. Lots of flavors, they don’t really combine superbly but it’s better than expected.
