(37.5cl bottle thanks to bu11zeye) clearish copper/ruby. Creamy tan bubbles. Nose of cherry, tobacco, Belgian yeast, oak. Taste of alcohol, oak, spices, cherry, tobacco and spirits.

Bottle shared by Kyle, thanks! Poured a near clear dark brown with a light brown head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was full of dark grains and a bit of roasted malts backed by a bit of dark fruits and whiskey. Flavor was similar with a more earthy grain note and a good amount of whiskey in the finish. A bit boozy.

Tasting at Papsø
Dark brown color, almost black; flat, no head. The dark malt aroma is a bit dusty and ashy, with very light alcohol and apples. The body is weaker than expected, for this gravity, with a fairly good of chocolate, caramel and roasted malt combination; the whisky barrel just seems to bring some alcohol in the end. The final is rather short, with semi-sweet chocolate and caramel; the intrinsic strength of the beer is covering some light fermentation flaw.

Bottle. Holy-Gusher Beerman! Took over five minutes to calm down, but was worth the wait! The signature Morpheus yeast dominates the front end, but interestingly enough, the end sip is a mixture of sweet coco, coffee and sour elements. Very nice!

courtesy of fiulijn - a brutal gushing sadly makes 1dl disappear ... pours a very dark brown cloudy beer; little long lasting beige foam leaving a correct lacework; a fair whisky presence in the nose along with notes of wood, licorice and black chocolate, fairly roasted; full-bodied and with some initial sweetness, a solid harsh bitterness; very long roasted chocolatey and woody finish where the whisky notes, this time, stay in the background

Woody roasty aroma. Deep brown with a thin layer of off white head. Roasty flavor with hints of liqour, but not too complex. A bit thin.

Courtesy of bu11zeye. Mahogany color with tan foam. Spicy red wine, sugar, chocolate aromas. light to medium bodied. Sugar, chocolate, wood, vanilla, dark roast malt flavors-my favorite of the three Negress’ that night.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown ruby color with a small longlasting off-white head. Has a roasted malty licorice and dark fruit aroma. Roasted malty woody licorice and dark fruit flavor. Has a sweetish roasted malty woody licorice finish.

(375ml bottle) Pours a dark brown body with lots of protein particles and a small beige head. Aroma of wood, raisins, coffee, vinous, roasted malt, and dates. Flavor of yeast, roasted malt, wood, caramel, light whiskey, and raisins.
