17-MAY-2013, bottle @Ølbutikken with Ulkløbben.
Dark, dark brown with low tan head.
Sweet roast, chocolate, bread, and barrel-like notes like bourbon and vanilla. Taste the same with loads of sweet roast. Medium body and carbonation. Finish a little thin’er but long and roasted. This is nice.

Another superb beer from the good folks at 8 Wired. Hugely complex and excellently tasty. Would go well with any strong main or a chocolate, coffee, vanilla based desert. but can stand on it’s own with ease.

[5/4/13] Draught at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. Black with a brown head. Aroma of roastiness and quite a bit of hops, a bit herbal and piney. Rather bitter flavor with some roastiness, sweet chocolate and piney hops. Rather full-bodied. Good stuff.

Mighty and strong like Smaug’s breath. Well balanced, rich and complex stout, excellent taste and aroma that combines coffee, bitter chocolate, aged brandy and hop bitterness.

Now, this is how I like my sweet chocolate: backed up by some bitterness. Very well balanced beer, the initial sweet chocolate never becomes cloying becaused it is beautifully complimented by the coffee, cocoa, and hint of vanilla. 10%!? Be careful!
