Xingu Black Beer

This one is from Brazil’s Cervejaria Sul Brasileira. It pours nice and dark and has some malty, chocolatey aromas. The flavor, however, is like fake cocoa and ground up drywall mixed with sawdust. There’s also an off flavor in there that I can quite put my finger on, but it’s not good. I know they say the riots in Brazil are because of the public transportation, but I’ll be this beer has something to do with it too.
