11.2 oz bottle-trade with jtclockwork-pours dark amber with a foamy light tan head. Aroma is musty medium malt-roasty, earthy. Taste is an initial impression of lots of carbonation, then musty medium maltroasty/slight licorice, 2nd spice/herbal hops. Letting it sit for 10 minutes softens the carbonation.

Aroma is rather disgusting with sauerkraut and gabbage. Some sweetness does occur too. Flavour is sweet with some sugar and solvent and some gabbage too. Horrible.
