Blind-tasted except for the beer's name and brewery/country...
L- Inky black, pours with dark brown part-foam lid that's gone in seconds.
S- I could smell pungent caramel from this during the pour from 30Cm away. It also has a deeper toasty aspect to it too.
T- Woah... it's rich! The flavour is... VERY different. It's kinda caramel/toffee on one side then on the other is a very perfumed aspect, and I mean like some bird who has doused herself in cheap perfume.
F- Challenging.
O- I don't enjoy being negative and rarely am, but this is knowingly pushing limits HARD and is far away from tasting anything like beer. It is as unsophisticated as an alco-pop or a Cherry Coke: More-so, I now half-way down seem to be getting an aspect of celery. I don't know what this is or is trying to be, but I shan't be buying it again. One of the most objectionable beers I have had in some months.
