Outstanding brew! Pours a dark brown color with a full, thick khaki colored head. Scent is of makt, coffee and caramel. Taste follows the nose. A medium to full mouthfeel. Aftertaste is sweet up front, transitioning to coffee bitterness

Sampling a cellar temp 22 oz bottle poured into my snifter. The beer is part of a trade with @Krubes. Thanks!
Beer pours a dark cola brown color with dense khaki colored head of about 1 cm, even with a fairly aggressive pour. The foam fades slowly, with pretty noisy fizzy sound I add, to a clingy edge layer and surface island.
The aroma is mild overall but features, roasted malt with some dark chocolate and a little vanilla too. A little bit of dark fruit, raisin, here too. No hops and no booze.
First sip reveals an average body with fine yet prickly carbonation. The texture is smooth and silky otherwise and the beer drinks pretty dangerously easy for 9%.
Flavor is malty just like the nose predicts.
I get roasted notes and some dark chocolate, this mixes with a bit of raisin and some vanilla and then comes back with roasted malt. the finish also has a hint of black peppery booze, but not really any accompanying warmth. Hops absent here too.
I Enjoy this malty brew and find it easy to drink for 9%. Nice brew and fitting for the style.
