Beige-light brown creamy head. Black colour. Aroma is malty with coffee and roasty notes. Flavor is malty too with roasty, earthy and dark chocolate tones, ending in a long malty, smokey finish. Light bodied.

Rocky tan head atop a black body. Aroma is rich chococoffee. Taste is more coffee than chocolate, some burnt roastiness. Finish is strong coffee. Fairly rich for such a low alcohol beer. That being said, the coffee bitterness is too strong for me to enjoy.

Pours black with a light brown head. Strong coffee chocolate aroma. Nice roasted malt flavor. Coffee dominates. A bitter finish with no alcohol flavor present. Body is a little thin. A good beer.

500mL bottle. Pours black with some faint dark brown hints and a small, mostly diminishing tan rocky head that soon becomes a film with some lined lacing. Dark sweet roasted caramel and chocolate malt (meal, cookie) and oat aroma. Sour and oily yeast (sweat, horse blanket) flavor, dark and slighltly bitter dark chocolate notes and a light hop acidity. Dark bodied and oily, thin palate.

Bottle sampled. Pours black with a large tan head. Aroma of roast, chocolate, and hops. The flavor is sweet upfront, chocolate, mostly roast, and finishes bitter.
