Dark opaque brown, small and fizzy brown head. Sweet syrupy nose, some coffee and alcohol. Extremely alcoholic flavor, little burned malts, dry coffee and a bit vinous finish. Watery, hollow palate. I just wonder how they can make the 7,8% ABV shine out this way. I guess you have to really use malts to make a good impy. Syrup, water and yeast just don’t go that far.

330ml bottle at The Carlsberg Visitors Centre, Copenhagen. Ink-black body under a beige, two-finger head. Rather weak in aroma with hints of dark malts. Smoky, dark malts in flavour supported by bittersweet liquorice. A decent porter, I would say (shared with Finn Arvid, 29.05.2008).

Bottle. Pours a black colour with a beige head. Aroma is very smokey - bacon, fläsksvålar and meat stock. Flavour has some sweetness. Loads (and I mean LOADS!) of bacon, fläsksvålar and meat stock once again. A hint of bitterness. Holy smoke (pun intended) this beer was really interesting and funny! It got way too meaty for me though. Try it!

Bottle courtesy of Thewolf: Poured a deep clear black color ale with a medium foamy head with some good retention and some lacing. Aroma of light roasted notes is the most dominant notes. Taste is a mix between some roasted notes with a touch of sweetness. Medium body with some good carbonation. Easily drinkable but nothing is remarkable in this beer.

Black with a grey diminishing head. Smoky aroma with some liquorice. The flavour follows along the same line with notes of sweet liquirce, Worchester sauce and coffee.
