Probably one of the best Portugese brews I had (not saying any of them were all that good). Aroma of faint chocolate and caramel, fairly smooth but not at all complex. Ok. HogTownHarry (3175), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada Jul 27, 2008 Bottle (330ml). Courtesy of ImperialJohn. Deep ruby pour, large frothy beige head. Lush, oily-malty aroma, slightly earthy, very dry. The taste is somewhat disappointing, weak nutty malt, dry and metallic-herbal, slightly harsh finish. Thin, slick body, very malty but astringent bitterness in the finish knocks it down a tad - just okay. lithilorn (101), Covilhã, Portugal Jul 11, 2008 dark brown body and tan head. aroma of chocolate and coffee. sweetand taste like smoke. a good dark portugues lager azlondon (480), Greater London, England Jun 30, 2008 Appearance: Very dark brown.
