Draught, a dark amber with a filmy head. A sweet malty aroma with a touch of earthiness. Drinking it - grainy, earthy, metallic, sweet, YUCK. Aftertaste like the sole of your old sneakers....

(Bottle 33 cl) Clear amber golden with a small, rough, off-white head. Aroma of malt and caramel. Medium in body with some malts and sweetish caramel and a touch of metal. A subdued hint of hops in the finish. Drinkable though. 120208
