It's actually spring now, I think. At least, technically. Some gray and damp winter weather has made a not too unusual comeback, though. It's good stout weather, so here's another one.
Reptilian is a Spanish brewery, based in Cataluña, which explains why Retiro's famous Fallen Angel isn't on the label. The beer is a little oddly unfoamy, with only the slightest ring of suds around the edge of the glass when it's poured in. There is a strong chocolatey scent though. The chocolate is less apparent in the taste, although some notes remain underneath. It's mostly earthy bitter, like most self-respecting stouts claim. It's a mouth-filling dark chocolate, thick and heavy looking, but smooth drinking. The beer is friendly and pleasant, not at all devilish. Really, like any heretic I've ever met.
