My review:
Pours a dark-brown, cola colour. Head fades away quickly, leaving some sticky lacing behind. Smells of toffee, molasses and a note of real liquorice. Taste is semi-sweet molasses, with a mild hop bitter, along with a coffee-ish bitter flavour in the finish. Picking up some notes of fig preserves in there as it warms up. Body is between medium and full; carbonation is barely detectable. As I expected, another finely crafted beer from Schloss Eggenberg. Read more on my Austria page.
