Commercial Description:
Definitely not your Dad's Wimpy 30 weight. An enormous & luscious dark ale that's as opaque and dark as the most well used motor oils.

Bottled. A pitch black and somewhat murky beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is acidic with notes of vegetables combined with chocolate. The flavor is like slightly acidic chocolate sludge combined with notes of grapefruits, leading to an end with a slight alcohol burn. The body is thick.

Bottled, thanks cquiroga! Dark black, minimal head. Tarry nose. Very swet and thick with lots of molasses, burnt roasty malt and oily syrup. Very full bodied with salty rye bread and tarry finish. Hugely flavourful, but a bit rough.

(Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Cloudy, dark brown - close to black - with an off-white head. Woody, bourbon-like aroma with hard roasted malts. Quite full-bodied, hard roasted malt accents - almost burned - with bourbon accents and a bitter finish. There’s an ashy twist also. Still incredibly yummy. 021107

Dark brown and a little muddy. Molassesy, a little figgy, with hints of coffee. Big flavour - alcohol, toffee, coffee, wood....crazy complex but not terribly cohesive. More interesting than wow.

Bottle. Black coloured with a medium sized beige head. Roasted aroma of vanilla, dried fruits and chocolate. Roasted flavour of fruits, dried fruits, vanilla, chocolate, liquorice and hops. Hoppy and roasted finish.
