Weich hopfiger Beginn mit trockenen und dunklen Malznoten. Dabei bereits zu Beginn recht bitter, was im Mittelteil aber nochmal deutlich gesteigert wird. Hier also vor allem trocken bitter, die aromatischen Hopfennoten können nicht mithalten und landen im Hintergrund. Herb-malziger Ausklang, in dem die Bitterkeit noch einmal zuschlägt. 11/11/8/10/12/13/11
Bottle. Pours black with gushy tan head that just wouldn’t stop. Nose/taste of dusty cocoa, pine, hops and grainy malt. Finishes dry burnt chocolate malt. Medium body. Overcarbonated.
Bottle hauled back by Greg, thanks! Black color, small tan head, solid lacing. Aroma of freshly cut Christmas trees and roasted coffee. Taste is dark toasted malt, pine resin, coffee, subtle dark cocoa. Very nice.
