Bottle: Poured a deep black color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of light roasted malt notes with some coffee notes as well. Taste is also dominated by some light roasted bitter notes with some medium dry coffee notes and some subtle black chocolate notes also recognisable. Full body with good carbonation for the style. I thought this was lacking a bit of character but still very enjoyable for the style.

May 19, 2008 Very dark brown in colour, thin beige coloured head, very light lacing. The aroma is roasty, light coffee, moderate sugary sweetness, light liquorice. The flavour has some light roast, lots of sweetness, some chocolate powder. Sweet mouthfeel, medium/light body, medium carb. Finishes a tad watery, thin but still bitter.
This was quite sweet. The flavour seems to come and go as it pleases, very mild roast, enjoyable.

Feb 1, 2008 Updated: Feb 14, 2008Bouteille 341 ml. Mousse très abondante qui laisse place à un beau cercle de dentelle tout au long de la dégustation. Couleur noir sans permission de lumième. Au nez des arômes doux de cappucino et de vanille sont présents.En bouche, on goûte un café-moka sucré avec des notes de vanille et de bois. Bonne bière douce mais qui manque un peu de corps.
