Ingevara (516), Hindås, Sweden Oct 30, 2007 Tinted head, dissappears totally after a while, leaves a coke-like brew but with much more taste. Sturdy body, slightly sweet, powerful chocolate and roast coffee flavors. This is a strong stout and that is very apparent. OleR (2008), Oslo, Norway Oct 28, 2007 Updated: Apr 28, 2008Bottle. Big frothy light brown head. Clear near-black body with a red glow. Smells bready and malty; on the sweet side with a low hop level. Taste is malty and sweet. Also with some some pleasant tones of licorice, dark chocolate and fruit (ripe pears, plums and dried dates). Healthy body. Light sticky mouthfeel. Sugar and light bitterness in the finish. estoves2 (98), Sweden Oct 27, 2007 Black body with frothy than head.
