| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Jan 21, 2009 Black. Medium palate on this beer, I was hoping for something a little sweeter and thicker. Still, without carbonation. The bourbon overwhelmes any of the baltic porter flavors that might have been there before, but for a bourbon beer, it is well done and I like it. Usuallly I don’t. pivnizub (5028), Bochum, Porúří, Germany
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 7, 2008 Bottle LCRBM08. Literally black. Wood, wine, vanilla, liquorice and dry dark malt in the nose. Solid dry bitter flavour, full bodied. Traces of barrique in the fruity and leathery finish. Very vinous brew..... Maria (6265), Thisted, Denmark
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Dec 1, 2008 Trade with Fonefan. It’s pitch black with a small, light-brow, creamy head. The aroma has notes of oak, vanilla, raisin, roasted malt, licorice and whisky. The flavour has sweetness and a roasted bitterness, notes of oak, vanilla, bourbon, licorice, light cocoa and chocolate, and it hides the 11% very well. It’s smooth, pleasant and very harmonic – very nice indeed! MiP (9088), Sønderborg, Denmark

Distinct vanilla flavour, very citric. Not bad citrus note, but I would prefer it without that. skortila (2905), Bunnik, Netherlands

Black coloured beer with not much head. The taste is sweet with woody whisky notes, chocolate/coffee, roast and dark/overripe fruits. Truly wonderfull. The name is impressive, but I would rather call it ’’’’Gourmetbryggeriet Brewers Limited Edition Reserve Single Cask Aged Double Imperial Porter Project Batch 001’’’’. Or something. :-) Ober (1200), Bommelerwaard, Netherlands

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Oct 28, 2008 There’s much, much to love here. Lovely smooth palate--I love it when you can produce something that is smooth yet well supported. Wood and whiskey in an excellent blend with the coffee/chocolate notes. Although the alcohol is apparently high, it really isn’t that apparent. Gosh, this is really good.
