Bottled. A dark brown beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel and chocolate. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of roasted malt, that makes it a bit acidic, combined with notes of milk chocolate.

(draft) Dark red brown body. Aroma is nutty, with medium sweetness. Taste is quite nutty, very malty, slightly bitter, and smooth.

The Fonefan/Brugmansia Cnudde tasting. Courtesy of Papsoe. Red-brown with notes of roasted malt and caramel. The flavour has notes of roasted malt, a roasted bitterness, hints of coffee and chocolate, hints of flower and nuts and some grapefruit, that makes it rather dry. The overall impression is somewhat thin, and even if a BA is one of the lighter beers, I still prefer them to be smooth, round and pleasant, not edgy like this one.
