Bottle from Beer Planet, Brussels
Cloudy dark brown color, almost black,with a generous creamy head. Nice aroma of dark chocolate and mild roasted malts. Good body structure, round, with very good dark chocolate flavor, and roasted malt; there is just a moderate sweetness to balance it; good bitterness level too; there are just traces of liquorice; the final as well is very chocolatey. Very good.
