Jet black, tan head. Rich full-bodied roasty taste, plenty of tangy details, including a dry burntness which stays for quite a long finish. Very aromatic when swirled around the mouth. Some slight coffee hint too. Covers the alcohol very well, and very drinkable. Egon (301), Gothenburg, Sweden Jul 10, 2008 Draught. Black with brownish head. Some light smoke and quite sweet. A bit heavy and strong. Caramel, dark chocolate, and a hint of salt. Marsiblursi (1378), Göteborg, Sweden Jun 22, 2008 (Drught) Pours black with a brown head. The aroma is of medium to heavily roasted and light to medium-burned malt with tones of dark caramel, molasses, dark chocolate, coffee and liquorice. Some orange peels are present alongside a tough US hoppiness of spicy pine and mild citrus/grapfruit. The flavour is heavily roasted and medium burned with tones of liquorice, coffee and mild tar. The mouthfeel is a bit sticky, rather thick and oily with a perfect carbonation. Light to medium sweet and medium bitter. Some oranges. Medium to full bodied.
