Bottled. A black beer with a rim of brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with some notes of soy sauce, roasted malt, and alcohol. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of roasted malt.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of madsberg. A black beer with a tint of red and a light brown head. Extremely burned, coffeeish and ashy nose. Medium body full of hard burned malts and ashy accents - about a ton of coffee in here. The finish is dry with a subdued bitterness. 270607

Bottled, thanks cquiroga! Pours oily dark black without forming any head. Loads of coffee up front. Sweet and thick, very malty, very roasty with massive amount of coffee. Creamy thick mouthfeel, coffee bean bitter finish. Certainly not shy, hardly refined. More a smack in the face of coffee. Certainly more interesting than balanced.

Bottled (thanks omhper!). Deep rubyish brown colour with small brown head. Aroma is strong smoke, alcohol, vanilla, wood and a real boost of coffee. Coffee in flavour along with vanilla, roasted malts and some mild hoppyness. Long coffeeish aftertaste. Brutal, different and pleasant.

Bottle. Dark brown coloured with a beige head. Roasted aroma of coffee and hops. Roasted flavour of coffee, liquorice and hops.

streaks of lace, coffee aroma remains strong and begins to pick up an ashy component, the creamy coffee flavor still overcomes the ashy character, the chocolate from the underlying porter finally comes through after much warming,

Very raw beany nose jumps out of the glass. Dark brown, somewhat hazy. The aroma also shows pungent dark chocolate and cookie dough sweetness. Flavour is sweet, with abundant somewhat harsh coffee that is rather abrasive on the tongue. The big malts provide a certain cushion for the harsh, unpleasant vegetal roastiness.

(12oz bottle, thanks chris_o) Small creamy brown head atop cola/black body. Aroma is meidum sweet, coffee, light sugar. Taste is moderately sweet, coffee, some sugar, earthy. Good bitterness in the finish. Creamy medium body.
