Bottled. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of chocolate and strong notes of roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, sweet drops, hops, and grapefruit, leading to a dry roasted finish.

From bottle #18 at sk8vikings American blind tasting. Pours dark brown to black with alacing tan head. Sweet and fruity hops aroma with a nice malt roasted malt flavour. Flavour is dry and slight smoked towards roasted malty. Fruity hoppy flavour following. Bitter and dry finish with a persisting fruity hops flavour nicely complimenting the mild roasted malt finish.

Shiny ebony colour. The aroma is richly roasty with light fruitiness and hints of citrusy hop, toast. Smooth as hell, with gorgeous Belgian chocolate notes, cream, vanilla sugar, Yunnan coffee. Most of the bitterness is roast it seems. Great foreign style
