Aug 13, 2007 Bottle. Redbrown with medium pale brown head. Aroma begins with notes of hopps and then coffee takes over. Nice.
Taste: Coffe dominating wiht some roasted malts as well. Long bitter hopdominated finish. It doesn´t taste like any other brown ale and probably isn´t true to style, but very nice indeed. Some Mikkeller beers seems to be to hoppy, but in this one the hops is helping a lot at making a great beer.

Aug 11, 2007 Bottle (660ml) shared with HogTownHarry and biegaman -- courtesy of HogTownHarry. Pours a cloudy deep ruby-brown with an average size frothy off-white head. Aroma: Oh yeah, that smells great! Coffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt and lots of green resiny hops. Flavour’s just as good and oh so tasty: roasted malt, lots of coffee, chocolate, lots of hops and a long dry bitter finish. Medium bodied. This is simply awesome, it’s in my top 5 best Brown Ales ever for sure! Can Mikkelller do no wrong?

Aug 4, 2007 Thanks to Christian for this one!
This produces a tan head over a medium brown body.
Dusty malt and hops aroma.
Chocoalte malt flavor with a dry hop finish.
Moderate bitterness which is high for a brown ale - but to the better and this balances it out quite nicely.
Nice take on the style.

Jul 30, 2007 Full, off-white head over dark ruby-brown body. Dark chocolates, fruits and alcohol in aroma. Smoky body, chocolate and then freshening hops at the end. Beautiful balance and the aftertaste mixes smoke, coffee and hops.

Jul 28, 2007 courtesy of Papose - cloudy dark brown colour, little irregular foam; toasty, strong mocha aroma with notes of cookies, nuts and vanilla; creamy mouthfeel with a good malt body; some initial sweetness before a solid bitterness; long mocha, malty and hoppy finish - another beauty from Mikkeller
