| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Mar 13, 2008 Bottle courtesy of Wickedpete: Poured a deep black color stout with a nice foamy head with good retention and some nice lacing. Aroma of light roasted malt notes with some great black chocolate element. Taste is also dominated by some great roasted notes with some black chocolates notes with what appears to be some lactose. Full creamy body is probably one of the best that I have tasted in ages with a great level of carbonation for the style. I was really impressed by this one and definitely one of the best for this style. pintsize (1042), Austin, Texas, USA

Black in color with a small white head that fades quickly. Smell is subtle (a bit too much so) roasted malt and toffee. Not a very "big" or bold flavor - some slight roasted hints are there. Highly carbonated which doesn’t exactly seem right. Overall, pretty decent skortila (2903), Bunnik, Netherlands

Pours black with a light short lived light tan head. Smell is dry, roasty, chocolate and coffee balanced very well. Medium bodied with a slightly bubbly carbonation and flavors of roasty chocolate malt and light coffee. Flavor is a touch thin but is very nice and drinkability is quite good. Nice beer.
