Mar 3, 2009 Pours brown with a tan head. A ton of coffee in the nose with a slight tart or bitterness. Flavor has more of the coffee with a good amount of bitterness, too. Tastes like a strong cup of dark roasted coffee, black. Nice brew.

Feb 11, 2009 Bottle. Pours a dark brown colour with big off-white head. Aroma is caramel, malts but also with citrus notes. Flavor is caramel, chocolate, a little coffee with a bitter finish. For me, this was is "stouty" brown ale. But good.

Jan 24, 2009 Thick rich chewy chocaltey malt aroma with plenty of citrus hop character in the nose. Opaque brown body is topped by a decent and lasting tan head that leaves some spotty lacing. Thick round malt flavours offer chocolate and biscuit and toasty notes coupled with fairly assertive bitterness. Medium body with pleasantly prickly carbonation. Tulip glass. Cellar temperature Bottle (Tappet den 01 08 2006, Holdbar til 01 09 2007). Bieropholie. Jun-07.

Jan 23, 2009 Bottle. Chocolate, fruits and for sure amarillo hops in aroma. Clear dark brown colour with beige head. There is much bitterness in flavour, like a grapefruit.

Jan 22, 2009 500mL bottle. Pours a murky mahogany with a big tan head. Aroma leans more toward the hoppy side - grapefruity, piney smells dominate. However, some coffee and vanilla beans poke their heads out occasionally. Smells like a coffee house at times. Medium to thin-bodied. Biscuity maltiness dominates the initial flavors. Some sweet caramel, light chocolate, and nuttiness follows. Finishes with some drying, bitter hoppiness. Not too shabby for a brown ale.
