Dark brown color, small brownish head. Coffee-licorice aroma. Soft palate. A bit burned malts, coffee (Jawa) and licorice. Lingering licorice in the aftertaste. Tasty.

Nov 3, 2009 Aroma is rich and smoky with a molasses undertone and hints of coffee and unsweetened chocolate. It pours a nearly black sable with a thick, fine-bubbled, fairly persistent cinnamon-tan head. Flavor is smoky and malty with hints of coffee, molasses and unsweetened chocolate, just a teensy sweet and just a teensy bitter. Texture is smooth, tingly, just a bit thinner than I expected but still quite good. Recommended.

Nov 3, 2009 What this brew lacks in aroma, it makes up for in flavour. The pour is strong coffee coloured, leaving a nice oily finish on the snifter. Warm flavours of espresso, dark caramel, bitersweet cocoa, and a hoppy finish make this a quaffable potion worthy of Russian aristocracy.

Oct 23, 2009 From a 750 ml bottle. Not a lot of aroma, but my sniffer’s not that good anyway. Pours almost black with pale brown head. Low carbonation. Flavor is big, strong, rich and just a bit sweet. Evokes chocolate and coffee. Nice.
