Flavor is chocolate with a bit of bitterness. Maria (5494), Thisted, Denmark Apr 10, 2009 Courtesy of After4ever, thanks Tom. It is black with a red hue and a creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt and chocolate. The flavour has a light sweetness and notes of roasted malt, milk chocolate, coffee, dry citrus and a light, roasted bitterness in the finish. It is uncomplicated and light, and very easy to drink. Dogbrick (2645), Columbus, Ohio, USA Mar 10, 2009 Thanks to Homerwantsbeer for sharing a bottle.
