| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Oct 16, 2008 Forgot about it being a wheat stout and I kept wondering why it tasted different than any other Imperial Stout. Low carbonation, lovely oily feel, liquid licorice. Very smooth. Great beer. HopsWhisperer (10), , North Carolina, USA
| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 10, 2008 Exceptional looking pour with a very thick, long lasting creamy brown head that never went a way and laced the glass all the way down. Pitch black.
Full bodied and very flavorful without over-top-bitterness. Alcohol very well hidden. The wheat must make it slightly softer and smoother than typical RISs.

Pleasant aroma, not to firm, malty. Wheat. Salty. Anise. Lingers on to a slightly bitter, lasting finish where burnt and hoppy tones integrate. Very good. Fin (3446), Merton, Oxfordshire, England
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 6, 2008 Picked this up at SuperBrugsen? supermarket Denmark and consumed at home Sun 05-10-08 Pours black with brown head. This beer is quite soft in the mouth, but bitterness quite full. Not much sweetness in this at all thoguh there is some quite crude cooking chocolate in there, but this is outweighed by the coffee. Maybe I wasn’t in a drinking mood tonight as I tired of this after a while and also became a bit fed up with this breweries Dobbel Dose that I had after. Really not a bad beer, in fact fine, its just I wasn’t really in the mood for it or it just wasn’t my thing. ditmier (1100), Boise, Idaho, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 22, 2008 Bottle....weird aroma, that I cant put my finger on. Decent head, black in color. Good lacing. Taste is minor amount of chocolate, small amount of malt. Touch of hops. Different beer that is for sure, pretty good though.
