I’m confused. When I had this beer, I found it lacking in roast, and far too fruity-tasting for my liking. Obviously, a re-sample will be in order, if anyone wants to help me out with that.

Black color; thick head. Light aroma of roasted malt. Weak taste, some malt, some roasted malt, some caramel, light sweet liquorice, but really too simple, soft.

[Bottle @ Papsoe] Black with tiny head. Roasted aroma with chocolate and liquerice. Sweet flavor with chocolate, coffee, liquerice and vanilla. Most enjoyable.
