Ocean Black

(Draught at The Rover, Göteborg)
Very dark brown to black color, medium size tan head. Wehan served cold it smells a bit roasted and a bit metallic. When not so cool still quite subtle scent, more to roasted than metallic though. Roasted and hoppy taste, coffee aftertaste. Some citrus and pine. Also a bit sweet in both taste and aftertaste. Medium to smooth mouthfeel. Medium to medium high bitterness.

Draught. Black with beige head. Dry roasted aroma, smoke. Burnt caramel. Well balanced, something to try again.
