Tuatara X1 Belgian Black Ale
Tuatara Brewing Co.

 

Very interesting, nicely done beer. Poured at a good temperature with a large, foamy, frothy, fluffy, billowy, tan head that soon settled down and no lace. Color is a very dark, but in a bright light, seems to be a clear brown red. Aroma is roast, dark ripe fruit, maly, hint of licorice. Flavor is similar to nose, with all qualities much bolder, bittersweetness is mammoth, slight carbonic tang, alcohol reinforces all of that. Body is very good although surprisingly light with good carbonation. Finish is like flavor, on the long side, and kind of drinkable for the larger bottle size (exact size, unknown as the label is a virtualy unreadable black on black.
