Review and Tasting


Sampled on 12/02/2012

Appearance:

Dark brown (almost opaque) with medium creamy tan head which quickly subsides leaving moderate lacing.

Aroma:

Earthy, mushroom, dark chocolate malty nose with hops and bready yeast.

Taste:

Heavily roasted, dark, complex and stout-like palate yet dry and bitter. It somehow contains treacle chocolate and caramel flavours without a hint of sweetness.

Aftertaste:

Lingering caramel with bitter chocolate and pine bitterness.
