Aug 9, 2009 75cl bottle from Bert’s Bierhuis, ABV 10%. Black colour, big brown head. Aroma of used ground coffee and chocolate. Flavour is coffee, lots of sweet and bitter chocolate, bittersweet coffee finish. Quite a lot of carbonation. Fullbodied. Tastes too much like pure ground coffee, and not like the delicious drink. The chocolate flavours save the beer.

Aug 1, 2009 Bottle at the RBESG09, Grand tasting, sheffield. Alround rating: Quite a bit of coffee and bitter black chocolate, theres a small lychee character in there too, which makes it quite interesting.

Jul 21, 2009 A Sim rate: Keg at Ealing Beer Festival.
Pitch black with no head. Aroma is so SO coffee... as you’d expect. It’s espresso with extra beans thrown in. The flavour is slightly too bitter with a hit that knocks your socks off. It’s like the espresso that has been sitting in the pot for hours until dad decides to finish it off. Overall, such an amazing aroma, I could sniff that all day. Just wish the flavour was as smooth.

Jul 20, 2009 Caught it at the brewery De Molen in Bodegraven, the Netherlands. A coffee dark beer with a nice beige head. High CO2 pressure, according to the type of beer. Aroma, like a smooth espresso or cafe as the romans say. A hint of liquorice and higher alcohols.
The flavour confirms the aroma, and the caramel flavour is added. I expected the hop bitters but this beer ends, where this review started, with coffee.

Jul 19, 2009 From keg at Ealing BF 2009. Black no head. Extreme coffee aroma. One of the smoothest things I’ve had. Pure choc and espresso. Stunning finish of freshly gorund coffee. Sublime. One of the best coffee impy stouts I’ve had. It’s good, really good, so drinkable and adorable.
