Bottle from Madsberg: Oily black pour with virtually no head. Aroma, a light roastiness and some coffee. Flavor, roasty malts, coffee, chocolate. Very viscous mouthfeel, incredibly smooth. This beer is excellent.

Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration. Body is medium to full, texture is oily - syrupy, carbonation is soft to flat.

Sep 21, 2008 99th rating of this brew of 360 total bottles. Bottle via trade with Papsoe, his last bottle shared at Toncatcher’s tasting with sd peeps. Pours black with a tan ring. Nose is sweet with a big big big malt feeling. Taste is sweet and chocolately with lots of character, this was a fantastic sipper with so much flavor and complexity, I wish I could have it again, doubt it will happen.

Sep 13, 2008 Bottle from henrikb, at the 2008 Pre-GBBF Chris_o Shindig. Thick, deep black pour, light tan scattering of bubbles. Rich soft chocolate aroma: brownies, cinnamon, a little well-aged Christmas pudding. Not exactly thick on the palale, but round, soft and beautifully mouthfilling: perfect. Trying to conjure of more adjectives for the flavor, but its just chocolate all the way. Molten, decadent, milk chocolate. Yum!
