Ungstrup (10417), 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. omhper (9704), 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! Papsoe (9242), 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 Oakes (6529), Miami Beach, Canada Jul 24, 2002 Updated: Mar 2, 2004Black as night; rich, coffeeish aroma with a little bit of other roastiness; quality beans used, thankfully; slight fruitiness in the palate helps to offset what is a very big, very roasty beer. Moderately full body. Nice brew, bit overrated. sk8viking (5995), Copenhagen, Denmark Apr 6, 2005 Bottle, just before hugging the brewer Tod in Delirium bar in Brussels for making this great stout. Black with a baige head. Roasted tar coffee aroma and a dry roasted light bitter tar taste. Medium to full body and a long warming light alcoholic finish. !!!!!!!!!
