Milky roasty coffeeish sweetish aroma with notes of chocolate and caramel pudding. Taste is acidic burnt toast with hop notes, a tad chalky and watery. Burnt aftertaste. Hmmm. Was this one off, or is it meant to be acidic? Thought it a bit one-dimensional, as well. Decent. (0.1l taster on tap.) ante (2969), Stockholm, Sweden
