Mmmm...blackness with a thick golden head. It leads to a chocolate- sweet malt smell. i don’t taste the 9.5 abv. Fresh raisin and date. Malt finish.

Aug 19, 2008 12oz bottle served in a Duvel tulip. Black body with a lasting large brown head. Smells of dark chocolate, anise, and a bit of pine. Deep bitter roasted flavor, some coffee is present, cocoa, earthy. Very nice.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle. Black with a large brown foam. Aromas are rich dark coffee with bitter chocolate and lots of pine hops. Flavours are strong black coffee with bitter grapefruit. Quite green pine with a herbal, spicy dry finish. Its quite simple but very well put together

does not count  Aug 15, 2008 Coffee and chocolate are very well represented here. Quite interesting taste combination, Suprisingly drinkable for the high alcohol content. Licorice type finish is present.

Aug 14, 2008 This black ale poured with a thin tan head and a rich malt aroma. There is a lot of chocolate and roasted malt flavor - this is a huge beer. Slightly carbonated and nicely hopped.

Aug 13, 2008 12 oz bottle, richly dark pour, produces a creamy camel-tan head. Smells of bitter chocolate, pine forest. Similar to the oak aged in most ways, maybe a bit more aggressive, green flavor. Super delicious, a new favorite, will attempt to homebrew clone this one.
