3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Appearance: dark amber color with reddish tones. Big head, beige color, rocky, consistent and very persistent. Beautiful foam.
Aroma: sweet, high presence of candy, toffee, vanilla and sweet chocolate. Reminiscence of vintage wine. Citric-fruity of plums and peaches. Toast malts, yeasty and cinnamon in the end. Low hoppyness.
Flavor: with the toast intensity, this beer remembers me a porter. Complex and exquisite. Toasty, candy, grain coffee and sweet chocolate. citric-fruity of peaches, berries and plums. Liquory touches of vintage wine and cabernet sauvignon. The flavor remembers me to a handcrafted truffle. In the finish a persistent toasty; slight smoked; and low but lasting hops-dryness.
Palate: Low carbonation. Medium body, with semi-oily texture.
Nice and advisable beer.
