This one pours a syrupy looking dark black color, with a very small head, and not much lacing.
This smells like extreme sweetness, with mostly vanilla and almond,
This is almost like drinking straight frosting here. The lower level of carbonation seems to send off the sweetness at an exponential rate here, making it harder to drink. The flavors could be decent, but there's just very little balance here.
This is syrupy, kind of thick, and just pretty flat tasting overall. It's not all that drinkable.
This is very disappointing stuff. I usually like Horus more than this.
