355ml bottle @Cimmeria, Oviedo. 25-10-2018. Courtesy of Nieves. gracias! Shared with Julius! BBD: 13-11-2018. In short: rough IStout. Did I enjoy it: yes, why not?. Pours black nith nice tan head, not so dense, long head retention, some lacing. Cocoa, spicy, roasty, licorice, anise nose. Medium to full body, average carbonation, slick texture. Some little harshness in palate a bit rough, but still winning, somehow the lack of balance of cocoa, coffee, etc doesn´t fit so bad at all. Enjoyable in the end, cocoa dominating.

On tap at the brewery pours dark brown almost black topped with a small tan head. Nose is cocoa powder coffee roast malts and some spice. Tatse is more of the nice coffee roast malts and chocolate.

La cabeza también trae un color distinto. En este caso es un beige oscuro. La retención y el encaje son muy buenos. Los aromas son de melaza, malta, chocolate de leche y ligera presencia alcohólica. Además, existen aromas de lúpulos florales. En boca se percibe un gran cuerpo casi untuoso con notas de chocolate bitter que resultan en un amargo medio bien equilibrado por el dulzor de la malta.
