Aug 26, 2006 (Cask at GBBF, London, 2 Aug) Colour is dark brown, almost black, with beige frothy head. Nose is roasted with black coffee, chocolate and bitter cocoa. Taste is malty and roasted with notes of chocolate and dark rye bread. Some sweetness, rather smooth and with a nice bitterness in the finish. Taste leaning in the schwarzbier direction. A very nice new acquiantance.
