Purchased at Binny’s in Chicago, IL, enjoyed at my friends place before a buddy’s 30th b-day celebration. Interesting bottle on this one. Appearance is moderately thick with a rich white head that laces. Aroma of dry chocolate. Taste is dry, mostly chocolate bit of nitrogen. Decent stuff.

Bottle - country #78 thanks Mora2000! Pours opaque black with a large dark tan creamy head that slowly dissipates with nice lacing. Aroma is roasted malts, cardboard, coffee. Flavor is light sweet, coffee and roasted malt, medium bitter, fairly astringent, a bit of a metallic finish. Medium body, quite carbonated, fair amount of warming on the finish. Not a bad beer, but the astringence is a bit offputting.

33cl bottle (from Arve_Christian - thanks a lot!) Pours (dark) hazy amber with a huge off-white head. Malty and hoppy aroma with caramel, fruits, citrus and some herbal and earthy notes. Light to medium body. Sweet and malty with an almost roasty caramel flavour. Dry finish with a nice bitterness and lots of citrus. Refreshing and easy to drink.
