look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3
NO can date
Pours a foamy creamy 1 finger head with good retention, frothy thick lacing, dark molasses brown color

Nose a bit of roast, dark toasted brown malts, a bit of cocoa and a bit of coffee, caramel, biscuity brown malts with some butterscotch toffee, possibly some diacetyl as well with that butter cracker, quite sure buttered popcorn as well, and a bit fruity,

Taste brings more toasted brown malts, biscuity, caramel notes, then into the butterscotch and buttered cracker, some buttered popcorn diacetyl and lots of it, a tad fruity, a little herbal hop, some roast and coffee late, mild bitterness, drier finish but slick then dry and a little astringent

Mouth is fuller bod creamy, med lower carb, slick diacetyl

Overall bad, not fermented well, big diacetyl, some fruity esters that shouldn't be there, a touch of astringency, generally poor beer

Pours a beautiful cola colour with a thick and creamy head. The smell and taste both are of roasty malty goodness. Mouthfeel is velvetty smooth.
