Bottled. (re-rate Dec 2006). Dark ruby red colour, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is sweet malts, raisins and slight hops. Flavour is plum, raisins, dry dark fruit and malts. Sadly almost no roast in it, only some weak hints. Still a very nice stout, with aftertaste of flowery hops, plum and mild roastiness. Slightly highers rating now than in 2005. 7 4 6 4 13.

Pours huge frothy head, ruby-pink in colour. Aroma spoiled with bleach like characteristic. You might like that here. I did Not very like stout. Dark, shadowy flavors, hints of smoke, some bitterness. Average stout.

Bottle, at home. Dark brown with beige head, almost diminishing, good lacings. Aroma moderate malty (smoke, burnt) and hoppy. Flavor moderate sweet and bitter. Light body, watery, soft carbonated. The smoke is fine, else the beer is thin. Old rating 6-3-6-2-10/2,7 (031008).

clear borwn, small head. aroma of caramel, malt and a bit of dried fruit. flavour is sweet and malty with very little stout character. seems more of a brown ale.

Sweet brown sugar aroma, and molasses. Ruby, small toffee head. Candied malt flavour. Medium bodied, sweet. Very nice. Thank You Radek.

I found a stout I did not like. It was dark and creamy looking. Cocoa aroma. But watery and tongue tingle attack. Smoke, syrup, Bitterness, rancid finish. Did not work. This brewery has better product. Thanks Radek for sharing the bounty from OKbeer.

Profumo di bruciato, tostato. Equilibrio e amaro sono le caratteristiche principali. Non molto densa.

Bottled: Dark amber coloured. Light brown dense and huge head. This is not how a stout is supposed to look like imo. Lots of malts, caramel, sweetness and fruityness in this beer. Is somewhat buttery. Is thin bodied and ends on a rather sweet note. Reminds me a lot of a dunkel.
