Nov 26, 2009 Bottle. Pours pitch black with a medium-dark brown head. Aroma is of roasty malts with perhaps a little coffee. Flavor is roasty coffee-chocolate with a smoky, roasty aftertaste. Thick and delicious. Excellent beer.

Nov 26, 2009 Bottle. Opaque and thick-looking but pours with surprisingly little head. Might be the hotel glass to blame. Aroma is coal, chocolate. The palate is fizzy but has good drinkability. Decent coffee flavors, dark chocolate, dry earthy finish. Simple but good malt flavors. Comes just short of having burnt flavors. Slight fruity tang too.

Nov 20, 2009 375ml bottle, turned. Pretty fresh - best after date is September 09. Opaque black. Big beige head that fades fairly fast. Aroma has roast malt, vanilla, coffee, cocoa, liquorice, prunes and alcohol. There’s lots of coffee and bitter chocolate flavour. Some burnt notes. Lasting bitter, acid finish. I remember when this was one of a very few decent Australian brews - it still more than holds its own.

Nov 19, 2009 bottle 355ml EXP 21.02.2010 from Systembolaget Stockholm 01/09 murky black beige head. Tasted this first time few years back and still kicking. Tight bite of roasted malts hops and dryness from first sip,. Hmm but bit thin in the middle. In aftertaste slightly astringing kick of roasted malts and dash of bitterness. Delicious one.
