Draught at Bishops Arms (Västra Hamngatan) Gothenburg, Sweden. Difficult to see colors well in the rather dim lighting, but the drink seems black. Big beige creamy head, lasting. Initial citrus hoppy scent and some burnt aroma, even before I’ve removed the protecting head. Burnt flavor with some acid, but not much, long lingering chocolate aftertaste. Citrus hops in the taste after a few sips. Also a bit of the American hops in the aftertaste. Medium bitterness and mouthfeel. Refreshing and very nice, highly recommended!
