Aug 18, 2008 Draught at the brewery. Pours with a black body with a frothy, dark tan head, medium last, that sticks to the sides of the glass. Aroma is not that strong/powerfull, but what is there is gooood. :-) inviting aroma of sweetish dark malts, licorice, and dark chocolate with hints of roast, smoke and alchol.Taste of dark maltiness, fulled roasted, coffee and dark chocolate. Medium sweetness, bitterness from the hops, and ends with an nice taste of licorice that lasts forever. Palate is really nice and creamywith good carbonation. This is a damm good cup of beer. Good it is back.

Aug 9, 2008 (6/29/08) Bottle sample at RBESG08 grand tasting in Plzen. Black-colored beer with a brown foam. Aroma is full of burnt malt and lots of espresso that spent a bit too long in the espresso machine waiting to be dripped into the mug. A slightly sweet flavor at first with almost burnt malt, coffee, some cocoa and caramel. Full-bodied.

Aug 9, 2008 Draught at the brewery. Pitch black with a creamy mocca coloured longlasting head. You wont find it any better than this. A beauty! Aroma is roasted malts, lots of coffee and leather. Flavour is a good mix of roastyness, chocolate, coffee, liqorice and mocca. Long liqorice finish. One of my favorites!
