rane (493), Nibe, Denmark Feb 5, 2008 Can. Dark brow with small long lasting brown head. Aroma of roasted malts and caramel and a little bit of smoke. Taste again roasted malts and caramel ending with some smoked notes. A nice and very drinkable beer. The can was empty before I knew of it. Beershine (2678), Hue, Vietnam Feb 5, 2008 Updated: Feb 21, 2009Titanic Brewery draught. Smells mainly like rye whiskey, not much else wafts from the glass. Deep mahogany brown. Alcohol-forward taste balanced by a strong malt character. Smooth palate with good carbonation. Canned version is the same, noting the smoky finish and the sweet malt character throughout. The nose has got lots of raisin bread character, and the dark raisin character persists throughout. thill25 (216), Orlando, Florida, USA Feb 4, 2008 Updated: Jun 2, 2008Didn’t get a chance to pour this one...Took a peek in the can and it was a dark brown w/ tannish froth. Great caramel malt taste w/ some hops on the back end. Nice thick texture in the mouth. Great beer that I’d like to taste again...this time in a proper glass. BigMilly8 (374), Holiday, Florida, USA Feb 2, 2008 From can : Pours a very dark, non see throughable black, with a very small and fast diminishing offwhite head. Big time caramel malt nose, with some chocolate poking through. Wonderful taste of caramel and chocolate malts dancing on the palate, with hops bringing it up the rear, with a slight bitter bite. Roasted aftertaste. Medium body with a very smooth feel. No real taste or hint of the 8% ABV. Very nice beer. craftbeerdesign (731), Alpharetta, Georgia, USA Feb 2, 2008 draft @ Taco Mac. I wish the bartenders at Taco Mac and other places knew not to use frosty pint glasses when serving good beer. anyways, after letting this one warm up a bit I got some nice malty chocolate aromas... the body was full of flavor and carbonation. Very smooth over the sides of the palate with some caramel. Nice finish, a touch of alcohol. bleeng (587), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA Feb 1, 2008 Can. duh. Dark thick head, almost opaque. Chocolate, malty, evervescent nose. Taste is creamy, a bit carbonated with chocolates, malts, sweet candi sugar taste. A bit thin on the finish but overall a wonderful beer. Bockyhorsey (2487), Mesa, Arizona, USA Jan 28, 2008 12oz can. Aroma of roasted, smoke and spice in the mix. Dark bodt with cramy tan head. The creamy head formed a halo on body a good caramel with a hint of spice bitter in the background for flavor. Smooth on palate. About the third time trying to rate this beer. First one disappeared, second time the cat jumped on computer table and that ended up with the cat having to lclean half the pint off her body. Now hope this one stays put. jbrus (4835), Delft, Netherlands Jan 28, 2008 Can@Home. Chocolate and coffee aroma. Ruby color, beige fine head, very nice lace. Sweet, light bitter, chocolate, licorice, coffee, roasted, soft mouthfeel. At first I thought it has a nice complexity and wonderful mouthfeel. But halfway the glass I found it too sweet and flat. So I downgraded my scores but a 3.8 is still a very nice beer. Thanks Yngwie!
