It is black with a red hue and a very lasting, creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, light smoke, licorice and chocolate. The flavour is quite like a thin Guinness, but that is what it is. It has notes of roasted malt, light smoke, licorice and chocolate. It is very uncomplicated to drink.

Medium beige creamy lasting head slowly settles out of nearly opaque black body with slight dark red tinge at edge. Burnt minty resiny aroma with faint fruity notes. Dryish burnt milky taste, very mild and clean. Soft, smooth mouthfeel. Dry burnt resiny aftertaste. Low on taste, but drinkable, and maybe even enjoyable. (0.5l can, MaxiMat, Charlottenberg.)

21/11 0.44 l can courtesy of ogivlado, thanks for sharing! It poured dark brown-reddish body with smaller, but compact head that was quite typical for nitro-filling. Malty, coffee aroma with some hints of caramel and chocolate, nothing special. Flavor was completely dull. Very watery with a little bit of bitterish coffee and that’s it. Finish is also very short. Although it’s not unpleasant and drinkable, it’s a pointless beer, worser even than NA we just had.

Canned(440ml). -trade with faroeviking (thanks Jacob).
Almost black coloured, small nitro head, cocoa nose. Light roasted malt, caramel and watery without anything else to talk about. Tastes just like ordinary Guinness with lower alcohol content. Smooth and drinkable.

Nitro can that ogivlado received in a trade with faroeviking, shared with him and heavy (thanks!)
More of a very dark brown than black body, typical small nitro head. Extremely weak cocoa and caramel in the nose. Very watery with distinct roasty notes, low caramel near the end. Hmm... not as bad as I expected really, but I’ve had far better at that strength (and worse, yeah).

Nitro-can. Black color with a lasting creamy beige head. Aroma and taste of roasted malt, coffee, licorice, chocolate/cocoa, and some citric/sourish notes. Thin body. One of the better in the swedish range of 3.5% "folköl".

(Can) Black colour with creamy, beige head. Roasted, malty nose with freshly ground coffee and notes of ashes. Roasted, malty taste with cold black coffee, ashes and notes of cocoa bitterness in the dry finish. Thin body, watery mouthfeel. Dry. Very much in line with the original, but thinner. Not bad at all.
