Bottle. Thick thick light brownish creamy everlasting head. Quite black colored. Excellent lacework. Complex and very filling aroma of burned malt, coffee, chocolate, liquorish, ash, mild spice, wood and vanilla notes. Over the palate came also dried fruit, mild yeasty and vinous notes. Very full bodied with an average carbonation and thick light dry texture. Flavor was heavy bitter with well balanced counter sweetness. Lingering burned malty and hoppy finish.

Aug 28, 2008 Aroma di malto tostato, caramello, cioccolato, con discreti sentori fruttati. Corpo rotondo. Al palato risulta ben bilanciata con un finale amaro.

Aug 28, 2008 Very dark brown, muddy with a big persistent lightbrown head. Aroma of overripe fruit (strawberries), sugar and burnt malts.
Fruity taste, very sweet, thick and syrupy, but giving away a nice dry roasted bitterness in the end. Alcohol is very well hidden, but the texture gives away its abv. Nice beer, though it could have done with a little less syrupy sweetness and a more powerful roasted bitterness.

murky dark brown Scent: roasted malts sour Taste bit cold but from first sip full body strong aroma of roasted malts kicked most me .Chocolate ,bitterness,coffee and hops above. It doesn’t feel 13%. One of the best beer ever tasted

Aug 27, 2008 33 cl bottle - big thanks to brewczar for the trade; jet black with foamy tan head; slight roast and very sweet; tons of cream and smoothness in the texture; no hotness whatsoever as this was a delight to drink; almost lemony flavor to it; sweet spice and dank fruit as well; doesn’t feel 13% at all; texture is very unique

Aug 27, 2008 My Rating # 2000. 33cl bottle @ VinensVerden, Odense. Pours black with a creamy brown lasting head. Nose & taste is filled with chocolate, roasted coffee & dark dried fruits - very balanced, vinous & pleasant. Plenty of hops to be noticed in the end. Palate is smooth & soft like velvet. Rather uncomplicated - just
really nice!
