Disappointing beer! Pours a dark ruby brown with an appetising head and that’s about as good as it gets…..unpleasant boiled vegetables on the nose with a sharp metallic twang. Thin palate with a muddied flavour, some hops but non of the malty nuttiness i was hoping for….i tried really hard to like this but it just did nothing for me!

Bottle, pours a lovely mahogany brown with a think foamy light beige head. A good caramal malt aroma, slightly nutty. A smooth and nutty malt palate. Goes a bit "soft" in the swallow, losing a lot of its flavour and its mouthfeel, with the finish being rather thin and bland. Shame.

Pours very dark amber, thin head. Looks almost like a schwarzbier. Hits with a bitter body, no hop flavour, almost no carbonation.

(Bottle 50 cl) Clear, orangey brown with a neat, dense, beige head. Lightly burned malts in the aroma combined with a nutty whiff. Medium-bodied with burned malt accents, a little caramel and a fairly bitter finish. 210208
