4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
UPDATED: JUL 2, 2005 Bottle at beerbistro. Pours black with a small brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Smells great. The flavour also consists of roasted malt, coffee and chocolate but I would like the coffee and/or chocolate to be even more prominent. Hides the 8% extremely well. Body’s a tad too watery. A little bitter. This is a wonderful beer.

Black with a creamy beige head. Heavy smoky roasted aroma, very nice. Palate delivers what the nose promises. A really nice surprise, given this is Sri Lanken in origin (much better than Sandoo of the same origin).
