thewolf (3608), Kolding, Denmark Feb 25, 2008 Bottle @ Yespr tasting. [thank you, Storm]
Pours pitch-black with a pretty, creamy beige head. Good lacing on my glass. Aroma is powerful coffee with light caramel roasted sweetness behind it. Super creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is dry, lots of coffee. Drink a Mikkeller Beer Geek instead...
ChuxBeer23 (4), Chagrin Falls, Ohio, USA does not count Aug 27, 2008 I love this beer and it delivers consistently. Ominously dark with a mild head retention of dark brown. Pleasantly aromatic with bold notes of kona that bitters the tongue.
Something that will fall into the very well crafted category as it is georgeous in appearance and elegant in delivery.
Awesome.
Capa (737), Yokosuka, Japan Aug 26, 2008 Black with a tan head. Strong molasses, coffee, cocoa, and roasted malts. Flavor is of lightly burnt coffee, chocolate, toffee, and some molasses. A little thinner than expected, still full, though. An excellent stout full of strong coffee. plovmand (525), Helsinge, Denmark Aug 21, 2008 Bottle from trade with SQNfan - thanks mate!
A pitch black beer with a creamy foreverlasting mocca coloured head. Awesome! As soon as I open the bottle cocoa and coffee hits my nose. In the glass its doubled and its mixed with a pleasant roastiness. Awesome! In the mouth its creamy and smooth. Awesome! The flavour is not as in-your-face as you see with lots of american Impy stouts. The coffee is very dominating with chocolate and roasted malts at the side of it. A bitter espresso like finish ends this beauty of a beer. Awesomeness! Beerman6686 (680), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 19, 2008 Poured a bleak black color with a light tan head. Aroma was of a lot of chocolate and coffee with smoke notes also. Flavor was consumed by the smokey/burnt coffe flavor and not much sweetness as I had expected. Not necisarily a bad thing, just not what the label describes very much. LilBeerDoctor (475), East Setauket, New York, USA Aug 18, 2008 Bottle courtesy of iowaherkeye. Pours black with a dark tan head that dissipates rapidly. Aroma of coffee predominantly, followed by roasted malt, nuts, and rich sweet malt. Flavor of coffee roast, peanuts, some burnt malt. Solid body. Great beer (it didn’t awe me though).
