Mild aroma of roasted coffee, burnt malts and chocolate. Initial bitter coffee taste goes to a smooth and chocolaty middle and a flavor that’s mixed a little with malts and the slightest hop bitterness. Smooth and bitter coffee finish. Very, very tasty. bager (2121), Copenhagen N, Denmark

Mild roast and chocolate aroma, some iced coffee. Mocha flavor, with a mild roasted finish. Medium body, almost velvety mouthfeel but for high carbonation and a slight husky, tannic astringency.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 21, 2005 This develops a big tan head that fills with large holes as it tries to die off, sticking to the sides all the way down.
Rich malt and chocolate aroma, almost like warm brownies in the pan.
Sweet and choclatey, with a roast malt finish that’s slightly bitter. Nicely done.
