Strong from Friesisches Brauhaus zu Jever

5.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 4.5 Texture 8 Overall 5

Bottle. Clear dark gold sporting a proper white head. Aroma and taste of grains, malts, honey and straw. Moderate grainy bitterness. Medium to strong carbonation. Not as sweet and boozy as I feared but as unthrilling as expected (and I usually enjoy this style quite a bit).

Pilot #45 Coco Cabana from BrewDog (Berlin)

6 months ago

6.4/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6.5 Flavor 5.5 Texture 8 Overall 5.5

Can. Opaque dark brown with a decent but short-lived beige head. Aroma of roasted malts, red fruits, booze, chocolate and a hint of coconuts. Taste of roasted malts, dark chocolate, caramel, grains, red berries, alcohol and a tiny little whiff of coconuts. Tangy and slightly herbal. Rather strong bitterness. Medium to strong carbonation. Quite alcoholic. Makes me think of a liquid Bounty bar covered in dark chocolate. It’s alright but I reckon this will be a one off for me.
