Dugges 1/2 Idjit!

Brewed by Dugges Ale & Porterbryggeri
Style: Imperial/Strong Porter
Mölndal, Sweden

Draft. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet with a lovely coffee note combined with notes of vanilla and dark milk chocolate and light notes of citrus. The flavor is sweet malty with very powerful notes of cocoa beans, dark bitter chocolate, and vanilla, citrus - especially grapefruit, leading to a dry bitter cocoa finish. Nice.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours black and opaque with a creamy, beige head. Distincly burned, coffeeish aroma. Rather solid body with very burned accents, licorice, coffee, tar and a whiff of smoke. A vague acidity probably deriving from the malt - ditto with the heavy bitterness. 160607

Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm. Transparently black, creamy beige head. Lovely espresso aroma. Potent and sweet with notes of lingonberries, tobacco and licorice. Rather thick and oily with some molasses. Saccharine and resin comes through in the finish making it a bit harsh.

From tap at Den tatoverede Enke. Pours dark brown with a little reddish hue and a dense light brown head. Aroma of mild coffee and smooth chocolate. Flavour solid bitter, dry malt, smooth chocolate and a slight fruity to herbal touch into the finish. Ends smooth and nicely bitter.
