May 29, 2005 Bottled. Nice blackcurrant aroma, not very special but nice. But the looks! Wow! Pours very thick, black color, brown creamy head, very nice lace. Flavor also very nice, light sweet, blackcurrant, lots of chocolat, getting more and more bitter in the finish with a nice fruitiness in the back. Thick and smooth feeling.

May 24, 2005 Bottled at DBF 2005.
Black coloured with a medium sized head that disappears fast.
Aroma of chocolate with roasted notes.
Low carbonation.
The flavour is a bit watery with dominated by chocolate and roasted notes and notes of berries.

May 21, 2005 Updated: Mar 30, 2007Very disappointing. Black, no head. Flavor of blood and metal. No fruit flavor or aroma at all, but also no bitterness. Like a light schwartz beer.

May 18, 2005 Couleur presque noire affichant des reflets rougeâtres à la limite du spectre. Faible mousse brume pâle n’adhérant pas à la paroi du verre. Aucun dégagement gazeux n’est apparent lors du service. Arômes de grains rôtis, de café, de pain grillé et de fruits plutôt noirs. Beau profil de malt grillé en bouche accompagné d’une sensation vineuse et fruitée (sureau, prunes noires, rouges). Un aspect rôti arrive en finale et continu d’exister pour un long moment après chacune des gorgées. Corps d’épaisseur semi mince à moyenne, carbonatation piquante et peut-être un peu trop présente.

May 15, 2005 Pours a very dark brown with only a little head and lacing. Aroma is of roasted malt and a hint of berry. Flavor is very roasty followed by a good hop bitterness and a vague hint of berry. Finish is bitter and slightly alcoholic. Beautiful, smooth mouthfeel. Decent beer, probably won’t buy it again, though- not really my style.

May 9, 2005 Chocolat noir amer. Fruitée. Mûres, cassis... Très intéressante. Robe acajou très foncée, presque noire. Mousse en dentelle.

May 5, 2005 Very dark clear brown-ruby with a medium off-white head. Deep roasty, fruity aroma. Flavor has notes of roasted malt, chocolate, a hint of raisin and caramel. Some alcohol and berries detectable in the aftertaste as it warms. Medium body with smooth texture and moderate carbonation. Good head retention. Not bad.

May 3, 2005 Smoke, peat aroma. Dark brown and opaque. Cream coloured head with loose foam. Bitter at first but finishes sweet. Cloying sherry flavour. Full mouthfeel. Cheers!
