Bottle: Poured a dark brown with a thick fast acting light brown head. When I say fast acting I mean it, blew up out of the bottle when I opened it. Very crazy and a bit messy. The aroma was a fruit, sweet sugars soft caramel, and spices. The taste was a roasted malt with a metallic touch to it. Finish was dry and sugary.

Nov 21, 2008 Bottle(donker) pours very dark brown almost black with a 2 finger light tan head. Plenty of floaties. Smells like roasted barley, spent coffe grinds, and thin alcohol. The mouth is super creamy and matches the tons of dark malt in the flavor. There is some smokiness and a little bit of chocolate. I love how malty it is. The mouth compliments the roasty flavors very well.

Oct 19, 2008 Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours a hazy brown with an off-white head. Aroma of hibiscus, liccorice/pastis/absenthe, anise, dates, alcohol, and chocolate. Taste is very minty, malty and yeasty, with a bit of anise and cocoa powder. Watery mouthfeel, light carbonation. Very different.
