Oct 2, 2006 Bottled. Black, brief head. Extreme grapefruit aroma. Under the hop detived flavours of peach, lychee and grapefruit lies tar and licorice. The roasty malt plays second fiddle to th ehops, and in a blind test I could have mistalen this for an IIPA. Very bitter finish. Soft and relatively drinkable. Offering an interesting twist on the style, and a wonderful beer.

Dec 19, 2006 Bottle. Very hoppy aroma, sweet. Black colour, brown head. The flavour is nice with a good teaishness, very hoppy, too. The aftertaste has a very short coffee burst. Good mouthfeel. The alcohol rises into my nose. A good beer, a bit much, espceially the hops.

Words: cellar stock
black, fine tan head that quickly fades away, drops of lace, sweet roasted aroma with dark chocolate and licorice and a fruity vinous character, same creamy body, rich dark chocolate balanced by light bitterness, lingering bitterness from the dark chocolate but not the normal astrengency from dark malts, touch of dark ripe fruits adds a sweet character, a touch of citrus in a hoppy roasted bitter finish
