Très moelleuse, elle offre des saveurs de noisettes, de chocolat et quelques effluves de café. Évidemment très malté, elle est douce et facile à boire. PJClarke (624), London, Greater London, England
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 27, 2009 Truly deep brown, lovely big beige head. Surprsingly hoppy, though still very light on the nose. Light roasted malt notes also. In the mouth the hops are still apparent. VEry floral and tingly. Great deep, powdery chocolate and almost burnt topnotes. Very nice, deep & ashy roast. A really nice beer gives a great depth of flavour whilst remaining highly drinkable. Love it. sebletitje (1903), Tampa, Florida, USA

Aroma of toasted malts, coffee, dark malts.
Taste, some bitter hops, light coffee notes and malts, chocolate malts with nice toasted palate.
Coffee was not too upfront.
Beer had a light yeasty haze floating around that added to the bitterness that was overly present. EHopper (274), Minnesota, USA

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | May 22, 2009 Sample courtesy of the coolest person we met in Kansas City, I don’t remember her name but she pulled up to the bar stool next to me and was in the mood for Mikeller. The beer pours a pretty reddish brown with a wonderful big head. The aroma has good notes of molasses and coffee. The flavor of the beer struck me at first as tea like which took me back to some of my first experiences with brown ale, there is no doubt a good hoppiness and a great mild coffee flavor. The beer just came off as brilliantly crafted and well rounded. Rciesla (3600), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 2, 2009 Bottle. Pours an amber brown body with a tan head. Roast y with hints of chocolate and nuts. Toast and very bitter on the finish with not much to balance the aggressive acrid bitter finish. Very hoppy brown ale.
