| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Sep 26, 2009 Pours black with a creamy beige head. Sweetish maltiness with a hint of floral hops on the nose. The aroma is dry and roasty. Coffee is evident, chocolate a bit more sublte. Some grains and sourness similar to rye beers. Finishes dry and roasty with mild but cheery fruitly/floral hoppines. The palate is dry, slightly ashy and it has sourness of coffee beans. Maltier than one could expect for such a light beer like this. Still it lack some body. The palate is smooth and a bit creamy, ery easy to drink. Good stuff. Jukkabro (3039), Tampere, Finland
