Bottle at YNWA, Kolding. Black, clear-looking beer with a nice beige head. Roasted malt, chocolate, some rauchbier-like smoke and mocha in the aroma. The flavor is smoked too, sure on the malty side, some roasted malt, and even a little fruityness. The finish is almost missing, meaning it’s weak, with roasted malt, chocolate and sweetness. Medium body. Sure a quaffable beer, easy to down, but if it weren’t for the smoke, it would be just another stout. (080229)
