-------- /> The score was calculated based upon the notes and an old scoring system.

Strong coffee aroma. Jet black appearance with a light brown head. The taste was mostly that of rich coffee with a slight malt sweetness. Rather thin body. Hands-down the most respectable offering I’ve had from Malt River.
