I expected much more from this one, but like Phil Mickelson in a major, I was let down in the end. (Except for that one time, Phil.) stouby (1949), Holbaek, Denmark

Goût de terre, d’épice et de malte rôti, une stout de deuxième catégorie mais agréable--Bottle-Deep dark red. Thick tan head. Earthy, spicy hop aroma with roast malt. Not a great one but ben plaisant! Fin (3446), Merton, Oxfordshire, England
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 12, 2006 Bottle, can’t recall where I picked this up from as its been kicking around for some time now. Pours dark brown/black with a thick light brown coloured head. Aroma of roasted malts and some coffee, taste was roasted and did have some chocolate and reasonable bitterness, but overall I found this to be a tad thin and lacking somewhat.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Sep 28, 2006 Updated: Dec 10, 2006500 ml bottle - pours a deep brown/black with a decent tan head. Faint notes of cocoa and fruits and very little else. And that’s trying really hard - there’s really nothing distinct in the aroma or taste that stand out. Taste of sour grapes and a hint of roasted malts and some bitterness, but not a hoppy bitter - not much here, thin and watery. There’s nothing, well, stout, about this stout - matter of fact, it’s more like a dark brown ale, and not a very good one at that. I wanted to love this beer, I really did - I like the gimmick and the bottle, but the thing that counts - what’s inside - sadly doesn’t deliver. MAP (1089), Lakewood, Ohio, USA

Flavor is smightly chalky from the initial bitterness, then follows rather boringly. GiBrew (171), Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada
