Accidentally discarded my rating, but since I only had one and I remember enough I’m scoring it anyway. Doesn’t taste as hoppy as most stouts, but isn’t too sweet either. A pleasant dark beer, that could be drank like a session beer. Good stuff. No. 1 Brazilian beer I’ve had.

It’s superb!, along with Moza is the best beer I have every try. My older brother brought me it from Brazil, I hope I can get some more soon. Bock,really dark with a yellow band at the top. Really sweet.

Aroma - sweet molasses. Appearance - average head, off white - mostly diminishing - black in color. Initial flavor - sweet and gets a little bitter near the end. Full bodied - overall a good stout.

Pours a very dark and cloudy black color with some red undertones. The head is light brown with good retention and leaves a nice film and lacing. Impressive smokey aroma. It seems like a combination of a stout and a smoked beer (I haven’t tasted a Rauchbier yet). There are notes of prunes, figs and hints of coffee. Tobacco is also present. Flavor is sweet and has traces of sweetened coffee, mokka, figs and tobacco smoke. Sweet with almost no bitterness, but very roasty character. Weird but pleasant. Soft, velvety palate. Just a little more thickness would help this to be great. Good sweet finish and aftertaste. I feel the smoke for minutes after sipping this. A little more bitterness to offset the sweetness would make this beer world class. So Brazil has its highlights too....many thanks to my brother for this one.

Best Brazilian beer I have ever had. Very dark with a medium sized head. Aroma was cocoa and coffee. Full bodied with a complex flavor ending sort of like sweet mocha. No hops tasted. Went down rather smooth.

This is a sort of guinnes draught clone. Pours out opaque black with a nice dark tna head. The aroma is non-descript but reveals a hint of coffee. Flavour is fairly good with some roasted coffee and chocolate flavour. Great creamy guinness like mouthfeel. It’s greta when people know you have a beer collection cause they bring you things like this.
