500 ml bottle. Amber with a weak haze. Medium-sized white fluffy head that clings to the glass. Light cidic biscuity aroma. Soft carbonation. Powdery nutty flavours with hints of dark chocolate. Cacao powder texture. Peppery. Watery mouthfeel, but quite a few things are happening on the palate, so it’s quite nice afterall. Lingering earthy hop biterness that lasts all the way through.
