Apr 20, 2009 Bottle. Near black, as promised, with copper-red highlights. Initial aroma of marmite, then chocolate and leather. Bitter roast flavour, coffee and chocolate, some leather. Very dry, bitter finish. Delicious!

Apr 18, 2009 Pours black with a little tannish brown head. Very thick with a smoky, roasted chocolate flavor. Can feel and taste that 6% abv. A little pricey, but very good. Thumbs up.

Apr 15, 2009 Cerveja de personalidade. Coloração preta, espuma cremosa marrom, densa, de média formação e duração, deixando uma fina camada perene, de bolhas pequeniníssimas. Notas de chocolate amargo (bem amargo), malte torrado e café. No aroma, sinto também baunilha. Consistência sedosa. Final longo, de amargor acentuado. Ótimo conjunto. Experimente!

Apr 13, 2009 From bottle. The aroma reminds me of old man wet farts in a sweaty rugby club with beer stained carpet around the bar. Some roasted cocoa and malt in there to. Great black colour with a frothy tan head. Nice smooth texture with a little bit of roasted chocolate malt in the flavour. Nice but not what I was expecting.

Apr 11, 2009 Sampled in a 22oz. Not bad. A pretty thick and creamy brew. Has a nice smooth finish, lots of malts and lots of well crafted bitterness. Great brew.

Apr 11, 2009 It really looks like old black engine oil. Roasted lightly-sweet and quite bitter aroma. Roots and earth flavor. Dry. Medium-low carbonated.

Apr 10, 2009 Dark brown with mahogany highlights and a creamy thin tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, salt, light smoke and light chocolate. Taste of roasted malt, smoke and perhaps a hint of chocolate. Body is creamy and low carbonated making it go down pretty easy. Finishes up dry with a salty liquid smoke taste and a mild zing.
