Ungstrup (14754), Frederiksberg, Denmark May 3, 2004 There is a lot of alcohol in the aroma of this beer, but also coffee and prunes. The color is pitch black and it has a fine disappearing head. The flavor is lovely; coffee bitterness and hops on a sour background. It ends on a very dry hoppy note. Really a good beer. Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 17, 2006 Updated: Sep 8, 2007(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of Storm. Pours completely opaque black - almost tar like - with a tiny, light brown head. Vinous, malty lightly raisiny nose. Extremely full-bodied and a chewy malt character with tons and tons of roasted malt and a burned edge. Extreme alcohol. Certainly a huge and complex beer, but frankly I find it a bit too much. It’s quite an effort to chew your way through this. 150306 and 070907 omhper (12155), Stockholm, Sweden Jun 30, 2002 Extremely black, intransparent, rich creamy brown head. Big aroma of licorice and coffee. Full bodied is a vast understatement. Sweet, roasty and really salty, thick mouthfeel, some molasses.
Finishes bitter and salty. Probably would gain from spending some time in the cellar, but who can wait? Thanks Gusler! yespr (11645), Copenhagen O, Denmark Jun 30, 2007 Updated: Aug 6, 2008RBSG07. From 22 oz bottle. Pours pitch black with little brown rim. Aroma is chocolate, roasted malt and liqourice. Flavour is liqourice and chocolate. Hints of coffee as well. Raisin sweet notes too.

Blind tasting at sk8vikings porter / stout tasting, beer no 5. Pours dark black with finer thick creamy brown head. Liqourice and chocolate aroma. Thick mouthfeel. Thick roasted malt, chocolate and liqourice flavour, quite alcohol heavy. Chocolate finish, slight coffee. Very nice, but lacks a bit of refinement. 7-4-8-4-15 3.8
Totally different beer - but not recognised as such - sad: From tap at the brewery as The Shit, huge thanks to Peter Zien for putting this on. Pours pitch black, creamy and with a chocolate brown and creamy head. Smooth and creamy coffee and roasted malt aroma. Smooth coffee and roasted flavour. Creamy mouthfeel and a light acidic roasted malt touch coming out of this. Lingering dry and roasted malt/coffee finish.

Thick black colour with mediumsized brown head. Aroma is sweet malts, coffee, chocolate, licirice, alcohol and some sour smoked wood. Also a bit vanilla as it warms up. Flavour is very much the same kicking you in the face while drinking. A very nicely balanced big ABV Imperial stout, which still manages to be both powerful yet so smooth and nice.
