Drunk to celebrate my rating number 21,300. Bottled. A pitch black beer with a huge dark brown head. The aroma has notes of sweet and roasted malt, bread, and a bit of spice. The flavor is quite sweet with notes of coffee, bread both newly cut and some toasted, sweet and roasted malt, and just a hint of spice, leading to a dry toasted finish.

Liqourice, dark chocolate, mild coffee and breadish roasted malt. Vague sweetness nicely counterbalanced by a good bitterness. Vague roasted acidity too. Fennel spiced finish. Smooth and solid flavourful brew, a bit too much fennel.

Bottled. Pitch black colour, mediumsized brown head. Aroma is very sweetish sour liquorice along with roasted malts, coffee and mild alcohol. Flavour is spices, liquorice and quite much roasted malts and coffee. Feels way more burning alcoholic in the flavour than 7.5 sounds...Otherwise very nice.

3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draught at Ølbaren
Black color; generous creamy head. Dusty aroma, cardboard, ashes and burnt malt; later, it’s more perfumy, soapy. The mouthfeel is smooth, there is strong flavor of roasted malts, but supported by a light residual sweetness, with chocolate and traces of caramel, molasses, and liquorice. The final is balanced, with this mix of roasted malt and chocolate, still quite bold. Not my favorite style, but it’s well brewed.
