3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle from El Corte Ingles, Bilbao. Had this at Mundaka campsite, Basque Country, Northern Spain sat outside Frank (camper) 06.07.11 Pours black with next to no head. Nice dark malt and muscovado sugars, touch sweet maybe but pleasant. Touch of black treacle, served a bit too cold by me but getting better as it warms. Good stuff. A7 A4 T7 P3 Ov14 3.5
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Yes, there is smoke, toast, etc., but the quantities are limited, the body thin and overly fizzy. There is nothing to carry these flavours to their proper place on the palate.

3.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
An almost black beer, just as much alcohol (4,8%) it needs. Chocolate and coffe in the flavour. Forgot: a very nice, foamy head.
