A deep dark brown stout with a thick moka head. In aroma, pleasant chocolate and plums, with notes of Brett, smooth and complex, light cork notes. In mouth, a funky chocolate malt with wood extract, black tar, Brett notes, very enticing and complex. On tap at St-Bock, Dec. 5 2009.

dark and dense brown with a massive head that settles quickly to thin bubbles with whitewash lacing. Aroma has raisins, dates and lots of esthers and ketones, smells like a chemistry lab experiment. Taste starts off with sweet dark fruit and chocolate, then acidity creeps in, then intense smokiness. Nicely complex and interesting. Not quite chewy, but substantial body. Not sure I can deal with the aroma, maybe it will grow on me. Maybe laying it down for a year will help. For nor, it’s decent enough to give it a try.

bottle courtesy of fata, thank you! talk about liquid bread, the hell with giunny! this stuff pours thick and opaque brown with some lil crusty, floury floaties. the nose is of dough, lots of dough! sweet with vanilla and butterscotch extracts, some hop flour dust. the taste is full on fresh dough, a hint of cinnamon, with a very present hop bitterness in the back. the mouthfeel is super, super full, chewy, and creamy. it lingers and makes you want a drink of water to wash it down. nice.

Bottle. Brown color. Tiny floaties . Malt, caramel, raisin, chocolate and a hint of ash in the aroma. Ashy, caramelly sweet flavor with roast and chocolate. Rhum. Hints of upcoming tartness. Just a touch of alcohol. Not bad, but not flawless.

Bottle, 33 cl. Dark brown beer with huge white/beige head, ubstablle and lacing and lasting. Fantastic head in one word. Sweet and grainy smell. Taste of coffee and caramel with a bitter aftertaste. Good stout, but there are definitely better (and more complex) ones.
