Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - MAR 14, 2010
Bottle 65. Courtesy of bu11zeye. Pours a very dark brown with a reddish hue and a dense and creamy beige head leaving a neat lacework. Very distinct coffee aroma. Medium body, sweet hard roasted malt, coffee and a little sweet vanilla. The coffee really shines here without leaving a massive bitterness. Quite some roast in the finish with a discreet bitterness. 140310
