Turbid, raisin brown beer with introvert carbonation sets a small-bubbled, off-white head that slightly surpasses one finger's height. The foamy cap dissolves soon to a thin lace ring on circling the surface. Some horizontal splashes can be detected afterwards on the glass.
The fragrance offers a bit of dried apricot and unsweetened peach ice tea.
The taste profile is light and a tad tea-like. I find unsweetened peach ice tea, some dried apricot, a whisper of fermented raisin and a reserved touch of light-bitter caramel malt.
The body is light. The beer finishes rushedly with a subtle amount of bitter caramel malt, a bit of dried peach and some black tea.
The mouthfeel is light, faintly dry, somewhat tea-like and relatively flat.

My first Cuban microbrewery 🇨🇺. Only two beers on tap.
The first beer is named "Black" but it actually colors murky, very deep dark brown. The reasonable carbonation creates a cream-colored, silky head that climbs up to two fingers. The foamy cap dissolves sluggishly to a lower level but still remains as a dense cotton lacing on top for significantly long. A few tiny spots can be detected afterwards on the glass.
The nose gets surprised because of the moderate nuance of blackcurrant. Perhaps a suggestion of blackberry also emanates to the nostrils. Interesting.
The tongue experiences a bit of dry black malt with a faint roasted twist. A berry-like medley of blackcurrant and blackberry does actually linger on the taste receptors. Not sure if this is supposed to be a Stout or a Dark Lager or a Dark Sour but it ends up being a hybrid.
The body is astonishingly thin. The beer ends with a gentle touch of blackberry, a tad blackcurrant and extremely moderately roasted malt. The aftertaste vanishes from the tongue rather hastily.
The mouthfeel is light, very distantly roasty, slightly dry and intriguingly juicy. Also somewhat confusing but by no means in a negative way.
