2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 Cletus (6177) - Connecticut, USA - NOV 7, 2007Bottle. Pours dark brown with a thin tan head. Smells smoky with lots of dark malt texture and some fruity elements. Tastes of pepper, some coffee, hints of roastiness and an underlying bitterness. Mouthfeel is on the thin side. Finish yields a weird aftertaste that can best be described as chewable aspirin. Not a fan of this one.

2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 tmrmwel (510) - Bergen, NORWAY - APR 22, 2012
Bottle. Pours a hazy, unclear dark red brown, with a creamy head. A lot of sweet caramel malt in the aroma, but not much to balance out the sweetness. A similar story for the flavour, though with a bit of burned sugar giving a whiff of bitterness. Not very bad, just a bit boring.

A bit of a coffee taste and some nut flavour. Not very thick, not very potent. Drank it on the street walking down Alto Palermo getting snobby looks from the chetos. Made me enjoy the beer a little more.

Bottle from Cervelar, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Aroma of coffee, gras and vanilla. Very dark brown colour with fast disappearing beige head. Looks a bit like cola. Chocoate coffee flavour, not bad.
