tlind2 (560), Helsinki, Finland Mar 31, 2009 330 ml bottle. Blackish-brown color, low brown head. Roasted malt and coffee aroma with a hint of tobacco. Very dry, bitter flavor with espresso and smoked wood. Full body, light carbonation. Pretty good -- it definitely stands out from the crowd.

altonbrownd (1862), Amsterdam, Netherlands Mar 24, 2009 Bottle from Bierkonning. Pitch dark black, with a pencil thin white head. Nose of roasted malt and molasses. Taste of vanilla, chocolate and dark roast. Also toffee, coffee and the usual stout suspects. A real delight. Only minor criticism is the very smokey finish, but I imagine some like that. Hats off to this excellent Scottish brewer. TrefwoordPunk (549), Leiden, Netherlands Mar 19, 2009 Updated: Jun 25, 2009Bottle 33 cl. Pours pitch black with a small tan head and an aroma of mocca, dark chocolate and grain. The taste starts out nice, vanilla, chocolate, malts, something roasted and strong coffee. But after that a more fresh taste comes kicking in and the taste gets fishy. Yuck, I hate that. Starts out nice but I don’t like this beer. Bullit (1300), Glasgow, Scotland Mar 18, 2009 Cask @ Bon Accord. Nice and surprising to have had this one in Bon Accord, probably the first IS I encountered there! Hopefully there will be more coming along. Black colour, creamy tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, vanilla, sweet tarts and coffee. Flavour of bitter coffee, roasted malts and chocolate. Slightly bitter finish. mikkopen (250), Oulu, Finland Mar 18, 2009 330 ml bottle. Deep, dark brown colour, thin light brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee, dark chocolate and a whiff of dark fruits. Strongly roasted, a little burnt flavour with coffee and plenty of chocolate. Dry, ashy bitter finish. Smooth, oily, full-bodied, low carbonation. A very enjoyable stout. AmEricanbrew (1747), Louisiana, USA Mar 17, 2009 Dark brown with a khaki colored head. Kelpie tobacco aroma with dusty black malts. Smooth medium body. Great flavors of dry, roasty malts with kelp, coffee, and cocoa. Starts dry and finishes lightly sweet. Nice stout. rosenbergh (843), Helsinki, Finland Mar 15, 2009 330 ml bottle. Finland.
Almost black with small tan head.
Roasted, coffee, nuts aroma. Flavour is more liquorice than coffee and roasted malts. Some alcohol as well. Mouthfeel is nice, thick and smooth.
