Sep 25, 2009 Pours with a black body topped by a thick head with a good amount of lacing left on the glass. It’s sweet and malty with nice chocolate notes and a little bitterness as well as some roast and alcohol. Full bodied, warming and well carbonated.

Sep 23, 2009 Sampled at the ’09 RBPTE, courtesy of MrChopin. Heavy malt nose with chocolate, coffee, and roasted grain. A bit boozy with port, wood, smoke, and vanilla. Light hops with a bit of resinous character. Black clear body with a frothy dark lacing head. Full bodied, thick and alcoholic, with medium carbonation and a light chalky finish. Big sweetness here, rich with chocolate, roasted malt, a bit of smoke and coffee, and long lasting taste. Mild bitter finish and sweetish after.

Sep 19, 2009 (Bottle) Pours black with a creamy brown head. The aroma is medium roasted with tones of cocoa, chocolate, tar, asphalt, light coffee and dark caramel. Undertones of buttery oak, molasses and resinous/citric hops. Cassis, green apples and blackberry hints. A touch of sourish lacto. Maybe some smoke. The flavour is well balanced - light sweet, near medium bitter and light acidic. Tones of asphalt, cocoa, coffee, wood and dark fruits/berries. The mouthfeel is round, light oily and light tart with a light to medium carbonation. Aftertaste of berries, roasted malt and acidic resiny/citric hops. Near full-bodied. Nice beer!

Sep 14, 2009 Thanks to my brother for sharing his 750 ml bottle. Pours black with a thick pillowy tan head. Aroma is roasted chocolate malts, lots of coffee, licorice a nice bit of hoppiness persists along with just a slight metallic note. Flavor is sharp and bitter from start to finish. Lots of dark fruit and a surprising amount of citric hops. Woody and coffee more in the finish which is crisp and fairly quick with a lot of roasted malt dryness. Medium to full body and a fairly sharp carbonation. Not my favorite IS but still tasty and warming.
