| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Apr 19, 2009 Bottle shared with DuffmanSW. Pours dark brown with a hint of red and a fast dissipating beige head. Aroma is roasty with coffee and some metallic stuff that I seem to pick up pretty often in beers like this. Flavor is roasty with some burnt toast, smoke, and cold black coffee. Palate is on the thin side with a nice medium carbonation. Not bad. DuffManSW (296), Riverside, California, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Apr 1, 2009 Deep brown coloured body with a thinnish off-white head. Aroma of roasted malt, toffee, figs and a bit of spice - pretty nice! Medium-bodied; Strong roasty flavours with some caramel, toffee and a bit of hops showing in. Aftertaste has a bit of sugar, some nuts and a ton of caramalised malt. Overall, a good nice beer - without a strong aftertaste or showing much bitterness at all! Definitely worth trying if you can find it! I sampled this 500 mL bottle purchased at a small convienience store in Praha, Czech Republic today, on 13-March-2008. judasbeer (266), Budapest, Hungary
