3.90.33l bottle. This is a darker looking brown one with an initially good looking really creamy quickly going sidesticking and islandy chocolate milk colored head. This smells really nice. Lots of roasted darkness with salty licorice and some butter chocolate. Loaded with licorice actually, and it actually smells a little like chocolate milk as well. Nice stuff for sure. Oh, it has a lovely silky chewy oily texture in the mouth this, soft and prickling on the carbonation. Loaded with roasted darkness and chocolate. Some mocha coffee, cocoa and there’s more licorice in the taste also. The aftertaste almost doesn’t end and what a lovely dark and roasted aftertaste this is! Leather and traces of tobacco. A really fine one all the way! 05.03.2016
