500ml bottle, dark brown color, with a creamy beige head, leaving laces, mild toasted, caramelized malt nose, with a faint roasty, black coffee bean accent, note of toffeeness in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a sweet honeyed, roasty, toasted malt character, with a smooth oatmeal, fruity accent of dried raisins, dates, with a subtle smoky, black coffee flavor, with a flowery hop citrusy, grassiness, leading towards a malty, roasty, lingering bitterness finish.

Bottled 50cl. It pours a ruby beer with a lightly tanned head. The nose is sweet buttery with hint of leaves and honey. Leafy taste. Slightly sour and metallic. Light bodied. Nice lacework. Some roasted malt and grain. A tad watery. Dry finish.
