| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 1, 2008 600 ml. Opaque with a three-finger head that quickly sizzles away, barely leaving a small ring and spots of soapy lace. Aromas of coffee, oats, cocoa, butterscotch and dark bread. Tastes of flavored coffee, caramel, chocolate, oat, bread dough, and tart fruit of some sort. Maybe a cherry-apple mix. Medium-heavy body is dryish and tingly with acidity. Seems mostly watery but also syrupy at times. trokini (1027), San Diego, California, USA

The coffee and licorice aroma is nice, and there’s a little vanilla and molasses. Lots of black coffee with some caramel malt and cream coming through as the beer warmed. The chocolate is more like a chicory taste. Some soy taste, but some oatmeal/grain flavors. turbo (1254), Arizona, USA
