Commercial Description:
Dark chocolate in color, you can see a wonderful reflection if you hold it up to the light. It is round and soft with the warm, sweet aroma of freshly roasted malted barley. A satisfying, malty taste, with coffee-ish tones and a hint of plummy fruitiness in the finish. Complex and beautifully balanced.

Bottle: Clear brown colo with small tan head. The aroma is sweet malts and slightly metallic. The taste has rich flavors of caramel and toffee. The feel is fairly thin with lots of carbonation and a seet aftertaste. Its a good beer with pizza.

500 ml bottle. Dark brown and crystal clear.Tall merengue-like white head. Slightly oxidized aroma, probably caused by the beer being past its best before date about a couple of months. Dark malty grainy oxidized aroma. Smooth texture. Malty rich grainy flavours. Little bitterness. What hops is there is nicely balanced by the malts. Chewy and very drinkable.

Bottle pours brownish and slightly cloudy with a foamy offwhite head that stays well and laces some. Aromas of nuts, caramel and light chocolate. Flavor is quite malty, caramel, chocolate, and nuts with a touch of coffee as well. Smooth easy drinking with a soft mouthfeel and a lingering malty finish.

Pours a brown/red with fizzy off-white head. Aroma of sweet nutty malt. Nutty flavors of roasted malt and a little bit of fruit and coffee. Thin, fairly sweet and easy to drink.
