Appearance: brown dark color. Medium head. Aroma: Toasted malts, candy and sweet-citric fruitiness like of plums. Flavor: Sweet malted in the beginning that progress in a nice sourness and finish in a low bitterness. Persistence malted, reminiscences of coffee and plums. Your sweetness hidden the degree of alcohol. Palate: Medium body, watery texture. Medium to high carbonation. Advisable, but not shine in your style. (sorry for my english)

Bottle Dark brown, almost black pour with pretty good sized head and a little bit of lacing. Aroma has a bit of spice and nuts. Flavor mainly of malts with a bit of spice in it too. Something kinda off in the flavor. Decent mouthfeel, pretty smooth. Not great, but pretty good. Somewhat bland.

0,33 bottle. Clear dark brown with brownish high head. Looks almost perfect to me. Aroma is spicy and sweet with some nuts - also really nice. Some mess in taste. Palate just ordinary. Flavor does not follow rest features but still good.
