Commercial Description:
Formerly called Pitch Black Black Beer
Characteristics: It shouts stout … deep colour and rich hints of chocolate and coffee yet dry enough to want another pint … an excellent beer to match with chocolate cake and seafood like bluff oysters. Can be served either chilled or at 10-15 º C for full hit of flavour.

Blind tasting at Papsoe’s. Muddy, brown colour with a weak head. Aroma of malt, roastedness, and hints of sourness. Sour and probably infected flavour. Notes of roasted malt - ends up very thin.

Pours black with an off-white head. Hint of lacings. Smells of coffee. Sweet with a very light bitterness. Lots of chocolate and a bit of coffee too. Hint of licorice. Medium bodied. Soft carbonation. Short dry finish with a hint of metals.

Bottled. A pitch black beer with no head. The aroma is sweet malty with primary notes of chocolate, but also a hint of acidity. The flavor is acidic with notes of malt and chocolate - I thin it is off.

Black with medium beige head. Sweet sour aroma with notes of roasted malt, berries and balsamico. Sweet and sour flavor with sour berries, roasted malt and oak notes. Must be infected. But that came out just right.
