750mL bottle that was gifted by Jan from De Bierkoning. Poured into a De Molen tuliped-cordial glass (white lettering) that I purchased from De Bierkoning. I carried the bottle around in a bag for a few hours, so it was pretty shook-up when I was opening. That may have led to the explosive cork. While I kept it under control, the beer was only start to slightly gush. But past the shaking, the beer was highly carbonated which led to a giant head. The body is black. Aroma is not sweat, a drier aroma, faint ash, and water dark malts. Beer is well attenuated from the non-lactose sugars. The lactose is prominent and the centerpiece. So, its sweet but lactose only. Flavor fades quickly. Its great if you want a milk stout. Love the label.

Röstiger, sehr süßer, z.T. Zuckriger Beginn, zum Ende dagegen ziemlich trocken. Zuckriger Abgang, entfernt an einen Malztrunk erinnernd. Naja... /8/7/7/11/7
