Draught @ Ølbaren, Copenhagen. Dark brown color with a large creamy excellent lacing fully lasting light brown head. Aroma is moderate malty and some smoke, notes off coffee / chocolate !! Flavor is moderate sweet with a average duration. Body is light to medium !! texture is oily. It was a bit disappointing.

A dark/black beer with a fine very long lasting head. Not much aroma but hints of smoked malt. The flavor though is fantastic, it is smooth with notes of smoke, chocolate and tar - a fantastic stout taste. This is one of my favorite stouts.

UPDATED: JUN 13, 2005 (Can 50 cl) Typical dry Irish stout with a rather sharp bitterness and some chocolatey notes. Comes with a nitrogen-widget in the can. 150202

From tap at Ølbaren. Pours dark brown to black with a dense/creamy light tan/off-white head. Roasted malt aroma with a light coffee note. Smooth and almost creamy mouthfeel. Distinct bitter flavour and a light roasted note. Bitter and roasted flavoured finish.

Tapped. Black opaque, huge brown foamy head. Sweet barlic aroma with hints of plastic/soap. Lovely palate, taste of barley and a bit smoke. Semi-bitter aftertaste. Soft and good.

Black and creamy. Dry, bitter and very roasty with some coffee aroma.

Draught. Brown coloured with a creamy off white head. Roasted aroma of coffee with notes of liquorice. Not much carbonation. Roasted flavour of chocolate and liquorice with fruity notes.

Draught. The aroma is smoky. Black colour, small, creamy light brown head. The flavour is also quite smoky with some malt bitterness. Changed recipe?
