| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 13, 2008 (Cask) Completely opaque black with no head. Burned malty aroma. Medium body with lightly sweet burned malts and then chili notes that come creeping upon you only to numb your tastebuds completely in the end. Even the malt bitterness in the finish disappears completely under the burning chilies. But quite enticing really. 130908 OleR (2095), Oslo, Norway

Roasted coffee, dark ashy malts and lots of chocolate in the flavor. The chilli kicks in after a while and gives away a pleasant burn. Medium to full body. Long spicy finish. I like it.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Oct 5, 2008 EBF2008. It’s a pitch black beer with notes of roasted malt, licorice, chocolate, hints of ashes and smoke in the aroma. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of roasted malt, chocolate, light licorice, coffee and the chilli is clearly there, but as a nicely balanced and pleasantly burning sensation. larsniclas (3386), Gothenburg, Sweden

Almost black with no head.
Pleasant aroma with loads of chocolate and coffee.
Overwhelming chili-flavour. The coffee and chocolate are there, but very well hidden. Not very drinkable.
