Oct 6, 2008 A black colored beer, with a foamy beige head. It disappears rather soon. The aroma of strong coffee with notes of dark roasted malts. The taste of chocolate, with coffee, dry bitterness. The roasted bitterness lingers on.

Oct 1, 2008 375 ml, best after 2007! Opaque with a quarter-inch foam that leaves nice webbing on the glass. Initial sweet aromas of molasses, char, marshmallow and graham cracker. Flavor is surprisingly much less sweet: roasty tastes of char, coffee and cocoa more than tame some light marshmallow, vanilla and molasses. Also some tangy green herbs to liven things up. Medium body is watery and nearly chalky dry.

Sep 28, 2008 355 ml bottle. Practically black with a medium tan head slowly diminishes to a thin top. Some malty and fruity notes as one would expect; coffee, hay, prunes, oak, but surprisingly strong on the hoppy side with aromas of grass and herbs. Initially quite bland, but the finish is rather complex with some acidity, some sweetness and a mild bitterness. Light mouthfeel, yet astringent. Fizzy carbonation.
