0.65l bottle from De Bierkooning. It's really really dark this. I want to go so far as to call it pitch black there it lies in the glass and it has a nice medium sized heavy lacing dark brown head. Smells amazing. Really sweet and caramelly with both strong espresso, thick licorice and a strong powerful roasted touch. I get lots of sweet vanilla here also and traces of smoky campfire in the back. Lots and lots of aroma here! It's not as sweet in the taste as it was in the area, but it's definitely as roasted and smoky. And then some! It really feels like I'm drinking something black, and I guess I kinda am. It has a thick oily feeling in the mouth while it's just above soft on the carbonation. It has lots of dry chocolate and dry cocoa powder this. It licorice and dark really strongly roasted espresso tones as well. The smoke really comes to its right now the aftertaste. Sipping at this it disappears way to quickly. A really fine one! 27.03.2014
