| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 5, 2009 33cl Bottle from Cracked Kettle. Dark brown to black colour, almost no head, only after a vigorous pour. Aroma of roasted malts, coffee and liquorice. Flavour is roasted malts, coffee, chocolate and massive amounts of liquorice root, giving it an earthy and dusty dry finish, but also a nice sweetness. Medium to fullbodied, syrupy mouthfeel. 3Faveryrogue (82), Asslip, Illinois, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 19, 2009 1pt 6.4fl oz bottle. Batch 002? Best by 7/7/08 or 09? Thinking 09. Brown to black pour. Thin wimpy tan head. Smells of raisins, chocolate, coffee. Maybe some soy or licorice, but first 3 most dominant. Mouth is slick. Smooth, but medium-heavy and tad oily. Upfront chocolate and coffee. Good finishing hop bite with roast bitter. Citrus remains controlled, yet still an astringency. Dont think it’s the booze. Some woody smokiness showing up mid palate. Wonderful note, though elusive. Damn drinkable. Found this on sale. Would never pay over $8 for this bottle, and it seems that Brewdog brews carry a high pricetag. Damn tariffs and diesel! Good 1st impression, and hopefully not the last. Solid brew. Made my night. Barrios (858), Nashville, Tennessee, USA

Pours a fading, not enough lace, beige head with a dark brown clear body. Smells of chocolate, caramel, and toast. Tastes like bubblegum, toast, brown sugar, and bitter chocolate. A bit thin in spots in the aroma and flavor/mouthfeel. caresville (106), Vernon, New Jersey, USA
