The beer is very dark brown, nearly black with red hints, the tan head is rather small, leaves no lacing but has good curtains.

The smell is sweet, brown sugar, burnt bread, dark dried fruits, coffee beans and some licorice.

The taste is very sweet, brown sugar, sweet brown toast, plum jam, vinous, almost alcoholic, notes, port, dark chocolate.

Little carbonation, very small bubbles, soft, oily, a warm finish.

The sweetness is a bit overwhelming, might be better if aged. Might not be the exact beer (no No3 on the label), but probably close, this is a bottled version (250ml) at 11.2%.
