Bottle at home, courtesy of Petra I guess. Pours deep deep brown, almost black with no head. Nose is dried fruits, molasses, nuts and chocolate. Pleasant, but not quite intense. Taste is chocolate, nuts, bread, dried fruits and molasses. Sweetish, but the finish is mildly astrigent too. Medium to full bodied, it has a soft carbonation. Not bad, but not quite sophisticated either.

Bottle at home, koszi Petra! Deep brown, almost black pour with a beige head. Nose is chocolate, cinnamon, light booze, coffee and tonka. The first few sips showed an enormous amount of carbonation, sparkling and spiky, quite out of character for the style. With time it settles down tho and it’s much more pleasant from that point on. It shows lots of chocolate, nuts, cinnamon and almond notes of the tonka and coffee. Closes with a chocolatey finish that’s slightly dry, it has a medium body. If it wasn’t for the post fermentation in the bottle it could’ve been a great beer.

Bottle at home, cellared this one for over 2 years. Hasonloan mas Black Barrel tetelekhez, a hordozas itt is nagyon szep, letisztult, dominans, de az alap sor tul vekony ahhoz, hogy elvigye a hatan az egeszet. Soha rosszabbat, de van meg feljebb.

Can at Pozsonyi, köszi Petra! Heavy, more sweet than sour, jammy, with barely any tonka to be found.

Can shared with Bro Ro, courtesy of the First crew, cellared this one for 1.5 years. Sajnos nagyon vékony, már-már vizes, kissé szójaszószba hajló jegyek, alkoholos erősen. Leginkább csak jellegtelen összességében, sajnos.

Can at home, köszi Petra! Korrekt kis NEIPA, közepesen domináns rozsos beütéssel (tehát végülis nem domináns, de azért könnyen fellelhető). Hozza amit ígér, még ha nem is teljesít felül

0.5 l can. Nose is strong, raw, pellet-like hops, just like the taste. Not too sophisticated, quite one dimensional. Closes with this hars bitterness too. Light body, average carbo.

Straight from the 0.5 l can. Decent pilsner, with a significant enough bitter character.
