| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 8, 2008 Black in colour with ruby edges, long lasting creamy tan coloured head, good lacing. The aroma is very roasty, some chocolate, good sweetness, light alcohol and some espresso. The flavour is roasty, burnt, sweet, dark chocolate, coffee and light alcohol. Sweet roasty mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes long, malty and sweet.
This is quite nice, lots of roast but I’m not sure that it has the body to last another three years.
