UPDATED: JUN 4, 2007 Bottled. Dark brown with ruby tints and a beige head. Aromas of soil, coffee granules, musty old books. Strangely sparkling for the style. Roasty Mild with an assertive coffee flavour and a hint of carp. Dank, watery and not dissilmilar to a 1978 Super Baf I had in Kulminator last August.
