Bottled. A hazy deep red beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with primary notes of caramel, but also a burnt edge. The flavor is sweetmlaty with a slight acidicy from hard roaste malt, as well as lighter notes of vegetables and soy sauce, leading to a dry finish with notes of hard roasted malt. Thanks to fonefan and Brugmansia for sharing.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours a dark brown body with a quite small beige head. Toffeish and butterscotchy with notes of coffee-grit. Sweetish in a way, but still very dry, with flavors of toffee, butterscotch, some dried fruits, a little sourness and a distinct coffee-like bitterness. Surely not my cup of tea. I ilke both dry and sweet stouts, but I’m not very fond of butterscotch in my beers. And a tad more fruityness wouldn’t hurt either. (080822)

50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a redish/orange glare and fully diminished tan head. Breadish, chocolate and mild spiced aroma. Flavour is mild citric to a breadish and chocolate malty base flavour. Lingering bitter chocolate and roasted acidic finish. Perhaps a mild infection, but not one that does much harm.
