Bottled, thanks andrepintado! Cloudy golden, mid sized head. Fruity nose. Sweetish with medium body and clean mouthfeel. Haar crystal malt with syrupy edges and some bread. Notes of grass and a touch of metal in a mid bitter finish. Lacking in the malt department.

Keg at Cerveteca Lisboa. It pours cloudy dirty orange with a thick yellow-white head. The nose is earthy, passion fruit, light herbal, liquorice, creamy malts and dough. The taste is bitter, rather boozy upfront, astringent, toasty grass, varnish, mild citrus rind, with a pretty dry finish. Medium body and moderate-high carbonation. A like aspects of this, but it is very harsh. Too much raw alcohol going on.

Review based on the BJCP2008 guidelines (style 13A). Bottle 33 cl - Batch 107S. AROMA: DMS aroma present mixed with roasted notes. no hop aromas, no diacetyl and no esters. APPEARANCE: deep black brown color and opaque. moussy average brown head with fair retention. TASTE: moderate roasted flavours with a dry coffe-like finish. low bitterness. no hop flavours, no fruitness and no diacetyl. PALATE: low body with low carbonation. a bit watery. OVERALL: a dry stout that needs improvement on the palate and proper conditioning to minimise the presence of DMS.
