Very dark reddish brown body, tan colored cap floating on top. Dark malty aroma with some coffee I’m trying to convince myself I’m smelling some metallic’s but it might be hops very hard to tell. Aroma is very pleasant especially for the style. Nice tasty smooth flavor. Milk chocolate, coffee, silky smooth feel, some nice bitter hops, finishes with a slightly bloody nose. Ok brew one of the better ones from this not so goo brewery.

Dec 23, 2009 Dark roast malt with a hint of cherry aroma pours in to a jet black pour and mocha head. Flavour is great dark roasted malts, that finishes with a hint of sweetness and drying tannins. Another superb beer from these guys.

Dec 15, 2009 Bottle at Håndverkerstuene. Pours dark brown with reddish highlights with a beige head that fades to a ring. Aroma is burnt and roasted malts, slightly sour and ashy. Some sweet caramel and nuts. Kinda bock-like. It sort of dries out the mouth a bit in the finish, but has got a solid malt sweetness. Carb is lively. Body is medium to light. Drinkable, would make a decent sessioner if I didn’t get tired of the sour ashiness.

Aroma of cocoa and roasted coffee with milk.

Decent brew, very desirable.

Dec 12, 2009 Bottle. Pours very dark ruby, almost black, with a small bubbly tan head that doesn’t last long. Aroma has some slight sweetness and notes of roasted malt, dark chocolate, licorice and cherry. Flavour is not so sweet but is otherwise quite similar, particularly the malt, and licorice. Medium bodied with minimal carbonation and a nice, mild bitter finish. Overall a very good beer and an interesting interpretation of the style.
