| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 4, 2006 Pours a perfect black liquid with a two finger dark tan head. Loads of lacing down the glass.
Rich dark chocolate aroma with creamy coffee. An expected alcohol spicyness as this beer is 12%. There’s a roasted nuts smell in the back.
This beer explodes as soon as it hits the tongue. It’s unbelievably rich. I really love this style. Milky coffee taste that turns into a nice coffee flavor. Spicy alcohol and the same nutty taste fill out the taste.
Finishes dry with a warming sensation from the amply amounts of alcohol.
This is a wonderful beer. I wish I could get my hands on some more. Papsoe (15107), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 3, 2006 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours completely black and opaque with a creamy, light brown head. Fat, vinous and very rich aroma of dried fruit and some alcohol. Very full-bodied with plenty of roasted malt, roasted and not really burned. Fruity and quite alcoholic with a malty bitter dry finish. A big beer indeed, to be enjoyed in very small quantities. 030606 Ungstrup (15382), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jun 3, 2006 A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of roasted whole coffee beans with this oily sensation you can find, but also with notes from the brewed coffee with a slight acidity. The flavor is sweet malty and again I find this oily sensation from well roasted coffee beans, combined with alcohol, leading to a dry roasted end. Nice one. sersdf (1000), chicago, Illinois, USA

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | May 28, 2006 12 oz bottle, pre-Noog fest. Hue is nearly opaque and devastatingly black which looks great alongside the short brown and immensely creamy head. The aroma simply drips in rum and raisin notes (mmm…rum-raizin oliebollen) along with dark and rich chocolate, dark roast coffee, anise, molasses, brown sugar and soft floral hints. The flavor brings out a pleasant and welcomed dark (more than I was expecting) dried fruitiness of black cherries, raisins and red grapes. Extraordinarily sweet flavor is balanced by a significant roasty bitterness. The mouthfeel is simply amazing and is, quite literally, chewy. Sticky, viscous and oily to the nth degree. The soft carbonation does nothing to interrupt. Divine.
