Dec 18, 2006 2003 bottle. Thanks to Madsberg for this one. Refrigerated.
There is just a thin slice of tan head floating above this black oily brew.
Roasted malts, chocolate, coffee and dark caramel in the aroma.
Lightly sweet, moderately bitter with some drying in the finish. The palate is creamy smooth with soft carbonation.

Dec 9, 2006 Pours black with a thick brown head. Sweet smoky aroma. Flavor of chocolate, roasted malt and a touch of fruit... Thick and oily feel, leaves a nice bitter finish. Another quite fine IS from Sweden, got this one along with Slottskällans from my friend.

Dec 8, 2006 330ml bottle. Black brown-tinged body. Missing head. Rich smell of roasted coffee beans and liquorice. Full-bodied plummy taste with some other kinds of dark fruits. Lingering aftertaste of yeasty bitterness. A solid brew that worked well as a dessert during a dinner party at Oliver Twist in Stockholm(01.12.2006).

Dec 3, 2006 (03 thanks Springslicker) As close to black as you can get. An aroma of light alcohol and chocolate. A dry chocolate flavor with just a hint of a sweet finish. I know thats odd but that’s what I got. A light hint of coffee. A mouthfeel that is slightly grainy but good. A very good beer.
