Aroma of sweet grainy earthy dark malt with some bittersweet dark chocolate and coffee notes. Body starts fairly full and sweet with lots of earthy bittersweet dark chocolate and fresh roasty coffee. Smooth and well-balanced with a lingering dark chocolate finish. kramer (2465), Sunbury, Pennsylvania, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 14, 2007 500 ml bottle, via Storm. Pours a black body that allows no light to pass through under a fine bubbled dark brown head. Some spotty lacing remained, and a good amount of sediment in the bottle. Great deep roasted malt nose with lots of chocolate, coffee, some alcohol, anise, yeast, a hint of smoke, and a little hoppiness. Flavor is full of roast and coffee up front with a little burnt malt and a dry chalkiness. Finished with dark roasted coffee, light yeast, and a moderate amount of malt derived bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium to full bodied with a nice slightly oily texture and moderate fizzy carbonation that keeps it from being too sticky on the finish. This was pretty great. On par with the regular Beer Geek Breakfast for sure in my opinion. dornoy (681), Lyngby, Denmark
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 18, 2007 This brew has a strong coffee aroma and taste. It wouldn’t be bad on a long, cold, dark, Scandinavian evning. But it’s not the best I’ve had. Spiesy (2333), Global Citizen, Greater London, England
