330ml bottle. Minimally cloudy, mahogany colour with weak ruby shimmer and minimally late awakening, small to average, frothy to creamy, slowly diminishing, moderately lacing, beige head. Chocolately and nutty, mildly roasty, dark malty and slightly caramel malty aroma, notes of milk chocolate, nougat, praline, some toffee, caramel, a touch of hazelnut flavoured white coffee. Taste is roasty, minimally nutty, dark malty, slightly caramel malty and minimally bitter hoppy, hints of Brazil nut, burnt caramel, a touch of burnt coffee, some roasty bitterness as well.
Nice malty nose, well crafted, sadly a tad light bodied, watery and provided with too much roasty bitterness - pretty decent overall.
Watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously slightly dry palate, medium to fine, dense, creamy, mildly prickly carbonation.

Day 1 of the Mr Hop webshop, Vernray, Netherlands advent calendar consumed at home Monday 1st December 2025 listening to ByteFM and cooking Gnocchi, Cherry Tomato and Feta bake. Pours more dark gold, light amber with a slim white head. Nice carbonation, soft mouthfeel, a little hoppy bitterness running through this, sweet maltiness also in the mix, strength apparent but not intrusive, there's a yeastiness and a spiciness. Good. Score 7.0

Can at home. Hazy fruit juice appearance, yellow, white head. Aroma and flavor are malts, fruity, citrusy, citrusy lightly boozy hops, somewhat bitter. Not bad but one of so so many. It's not a bad beer but I won't remember this one.
