[Bottled. Marsiblursi delivers]
Black colour. Asphalt, blood, almonds and glue was found in aroma. Wow! The mouthfeel is fantastic, this is ultrasmooth like silk. Taste is somewhat cigarette-smokey with a fiery touch. Chocolate is there. Aftertaste is pleasantly smokey and lasts long. Bit bit sour, but that adds to the flavour all in all. 1,5 year old bottle.

Bottle at London Gathering Nov 05. Really nice smell. Oily, dark malts. Slightly sour in mouth but good chocolate and coffee flavours. Finish is really liquoricey. Good bitter dark choc and the liquorice is quite intense. Best of the Alcazar bottled beers I bought in Nottingham that I have had so far.

Leicester Beer Fest. Pitch black in colour with a small off-white head. Aromas are earthy, licourice and chocolate with roast malts. Flavours have the same characteristics as the aroma, with extra licourice, fruity tang and a smooth hoppy finish. Only two casks of this were produced but look out for the bottles.
