3.58/5  rDev -11.8%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.5

A - Jet black pour into a La Guillotine snifter with a one half finger thick foamy, bubbly, tan head; good retention (4)

S - Roasted malts and chocolates on the nose (4)

T - Roasted malts upfront with flavors of cocoa and chocolate in the middle; taste is generally a tad watery (3.5)

M - Light to medium bodied thickness with a slightly above average carbonation and a watery texture (3)

D - Pleasant chocolate flavors and easy drinking but the watered down nature in the flavors was quite a negative (3.5)

I had a high expectation of this beer but it's quite disappointing as per the above review to be honest. I hope this is a bad bottle.

look: 4.5 | smell: 5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4

A: A dark consistent body, with a creamy head.

S: Coffe and other toasted malts, very sweet and atractive.

T: Follows the nose, with coffe and toffee followed by some bitterness in a complex flavour. The carbonation isn't intrusive.

M: The coffe bitterness with the hop bitterness combined bring a sensation unique. With a bittersweet end.

O: Great to cold days this beer is delightful and complex, but is not my favorite kind of beer. Anyway it is great in its style.
