Oct 16, 2009 Bottle from Bierkoning. Dark black with razor thin brown head. Sweet and dark chocolate nose. Taste of chocolate, sugar and then more dark chocolate. Notes of coffee.

Oct 22, 2008 Bottle @ Coles Buffalo NY. Pours an opaque black as night black. Very roasted, chocolate, booze aroma. Taste is very overpowering. Felt peppery burning. Burnt flavors, pepper heat. Boozy. Extreme but unbalanced to the extreme. Didnt really get any of the coffee that this was brewed with. Not for me

Dec 12, 2007 Updated: Feb 14, 2008Pours a very nice dark black with a thin creamy brown head. The nose is very nice, chocolate cherries, molasses, alcohol, coffee, sweet, . The flavor was warm dry alcohol, sweet, chocolate, espresso on the sides of the tongue, and there are the hops, waxy warm and bitter on the back of the tongue. Crisp dry palate with the alcohol showing mostly as warmth in the stomach. Not as phenomenal as I had expected but still good.
