12 oz bottle at Brazilian restaurant in NYC. Pours almost black with a small foamy head. Nice aroma of dark fruit, raisin and coffee. Medium body with flavor of dark sweet fruit, light coffee with some hop bitterness in the background. I was surprised I liked this quite a bit, more over the other choices in this place were Hineken , Budlight and so on.

Bottle at Brazilian restaurant. Pours opaque black with a small tan head. Very cold so the chocolate/malty nose was minimal. Taste is sweet, rich, chocolately, caramely, with some nice malt backdrop. Got tastier but thinner as it warmed. Surprisingly I liked this quite a bit and will search out a few more bottles.

Pours a very dark brown. Sweet floral aroma. Sweet with a floral and grape taste. Smooth finish.
