larsga (4617) - Oslo, NORWAY - JUL 31, 2011
Medium deep beige head. Opaque black body goes deep dark brown at edges. Roasty sugary toffee aroma with grainy raisiny licorice notes. Fresh and clean. Dry-sweet raisiny licorice taste with roasty notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dry minty roasty aftertaste with earthy grainy notes. Nice and clean, but lacks character. (0.25l draft at brewpub.)

chriso (7063) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUL 9, 2011
On tap at Apollo, Copenhagen on 22 May 2011. Not sure why this is regarded as a special as it seems to appear every year - 5.7% in the 2011 incarnation. Very dark brown with a fluffy beige head. Light roast and biscuit malt aroma. More roasty notes on the palate. Also plenty of powdery chocolate. Tasty and enjoyable.

thewolf (8621) - Kolding, DENMARK - MAY 26, 2011
tap @ apollo, cph.
nice clear chestnut colour with a small, creamy beige film head. Aroma is quite weak. Some liqourice, rye bread and light roasted malts. Highish carbonation, fairly light and a bit dry palate. Flavour has plenty of rye bread, light roasted notes and a touch of dark chocolate. Fairly elegant finish with malty bitterness and floral hops. Elegant but also thin and weak.
