Brown with a medium beige head. Sweet aroma with roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. The flavour went the same way with breadish notes to add.

(22oz bottle) Large rocky tan head atop black-brown body. Aroma is medium sweet, roast, coffee, chocolate, some earthy, sourness. Taste is badly infected sour cherry, some roast, light chocolate. Effervescent light-medium body. Will try to give this another shot, but disappointing to say the least.
