| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 30, 2007 Sample from tap at the brewery. Pours dark brown to black with a brown head. Aroma is roasted malt and coffee. Flavour is coffee with malts kicking in a bit later. Long bitter finish. Adding 1 overall due to the coffee compared to the regular bender, I really enjoy that. omhper (12299), Stockholm, Sweden
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 26, 2009 Canned, thanks Baggio! Chocolate brown, small head. Aroma of coffee and toffee. Medium sweet and medium bodied with firm malt. The cooffee flavor is highly upfront and dominant, making it rather one-dimensional. Fortunately I happen to like coffee so this beer right down my alley. joergen (8637), Frederiksberg, Denmark

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 2/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 24, 2008 Draught, CBC Chestnut, cloudy. Gorgeous, complex chocolatey, earthy coffee nose is probably the best coffee beer nose I’ve come across, at least in a long while. Smooth, complex coffee, lightly balanced. Good backing sweetness. Stellar example. argo0 (7006), Washington DC, USA
