A solid stout better than normal Guinness. Imported from Nigeria so ’Foreign’ extra stout. It’s probably closer to the original Gunness than what they currently brew. A nice nutty texture thick sludge of vanilla, creamy, very enjoyable. Could do with more hops though. I enjoy this much more than regular Guinness.

355ml bottle. London Tan foam atop a ruby-highlighted black body. Sweet malt aroma straightup; toffee, perfumey cereal, milk chocolate, combine with roasted meat and wood notes. Moderate carbonation, sligh creamy texture, rich body with quite a high lactic sharpness. Quite a complex flavour; charred wood, burnt toffee, plum, sour mash, minerally notes. All of which linger on a bitter finish. Very different from the authentic stuff, more funky and complex in comparison.

Black body with a large and solid, lasting, light tan head. Rings of lacing. Light roasted malts in the aroma as well as a little liquorice. A little grainy in the taste, coffee, cocoa and don’t really notice the alcohol.

Bottle sample at a tasting. Thanks zvikar. Black-colored with a medium light brown head. Aroma has some roastiness, yeast, strange fruitiness and subdued notes of coffee beans, nuts and dark fruits. Flavor assures me this one is infected, as it is a bit too sour and yeasty with some more of the strange fruitiness and almost no sweetness. It seems quite a few raters had an infected bottle of this, so I’m rating it anyway.
