DeweyDell (155), Columbus, Ohio, USA Sep 17, 2007 12 oz bottle. Pours black with a white-ish head, looks like a fairly typical stout. Smells like vegetable soup... mostly cabbage, some cooked carrots. Really unique and kind of bad smelling, but maybe something I could get used to depending on the taste. Tastes surprisingly good, chocolate, rye bread, a little bit of hops. Decent beer, definitely unique, and drinkable despite the vegetable soup taste/smell. I like it, and I think I’d buy it again. Grovlam (3790), Copenhagen, Denmark Sep 2, 2007 Bottle. [Courtesy of Papsoe, another great session @ Papsoe] Average beige fizzy head that mostly diminished. Fair display of lacework. Black color. Aroma of roasted malt, distant fruit, chocolate, coffee, sweet malty notes with a hint of brown sugar. Medium bodied with an average carbonation. Moderated bitter flavor with good balancing sweetness. Lingering liquorish finish. 31-08-2007 Papsoe (14613), Frederiksberg, Denmark Sep 2, 2007 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of sliffy. Hazy, dark orangey brown with a small, beige head. Aroma of roasted malt and licorice. Medium body, sweetish, roasted malt notes with a lightly burned edge. The finish is dry. 310807 yespr (11613), Copenhagen O, Denmark Sep 1, 2007 12 fl oz bottle. Pours murky dark brown with a light brown head. Roasted malty aroma with a mild herbal twist. Rye flavour with some herbal noted bitterness, dry malty. Nice. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 03/10/2006

fiulijn (7150), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Aug 31, 2007 Cloudy dark chestnut color; the head disappears quickly. Like the American yeast aroma. More persistent, a milky aroma of roasted malt. Medium to light body, with a quite good mix of sweet caramel and some roasted malt. Not my liking, but not bad. biggenius29 (155), Hamilton, Michigan, USA Jul 12, 2007 Bottled on 2-9-06, batch 7235. Notes from a 1-9-07 rating. Big coffee taste and a spicy rye finish. Very creamy mouthfeel but a fairly light body. Very complex, yet very good. shadey (1496), Rochester, New York, USA Jun 10, 2007 Pour is appropriately black. Very little head, but still attractive. The aroma is slightly roasty with a good amount of smooth chocolate. The flavor has just a touch of spiciness that I thought wasn’t normal for a stout. However the rye is masked and I doubt I would have noticed if I didn’t know what I was looking for. still a very good stout.
