Black colour. Asphalt, blood, almonds and glue was found in aroma. Wow! The mouthfeel is fantastic, this is ultrasmooth like silk. Taste is somewhat cigarette-smokey with a fiery touch. Chocolate is there. Aftertaste is pleasantly smokey and lasts long. Bit bit sour, but that adds to the flavour all in all. 1,5 year old bottle.

Nov 14, 2005 Bottle at London Gathering Nov 05. Really nice smell. Oily, dark malts. Slightly sour in mouth but good chocolate and coffee flavours. Finish is really liquoricey. Good bitter dark choc and the liquorice is quite intense. Best of the Alcazar bottled beers I bought in Nottingham that I have had so far.

Nov 14, 2005 Bottled at the Chris_O Beer, Cheese and Curry powwow. A black coloured beer with little to no head. The aroma is nice with licquorice and dark chocolate. The taste also has licquorice and dark chocolate with some roasted malts. Full-bodied and very flavourful.
