12 fl oz bottle. Pours murky dark brown with a light brown head. Roasted malty aroma with a mild herbal twist. Rye flavour with some herbal noted bitterness, dry malty. Nice.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled at Akkurat, Stockholm. Black with creamy beige head. Burnt aroma of bread and prunes. Dryish with a surprising fruity touch. Medium bodied with spritzy mouthfeel, light notes of nutes and blackberries. Doesn’t have the roastiness usually associated with stouts. Lightly salty finish. Surprising in every aspect.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottled. Black opaque colour, minor brown head. Aroma is roast, rye and grain. Flavour is strong roasted malts, wet wood, rye, caramel and licorace. Wellbalanced, quite complex, but still very easy to drink.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Very dark brown; nutty, coffeeish aroma; similar palate, fatty mouthfeel. Nice, the rye adds a little bit of difference which is kind of hard to put into words, but I like it.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Cloudy dark chestnut color; the head disappears quickly. Like the American yeast aroma. More persistent, a milky aroma of roasted malt. Medium to light body, with a quite good mix of sweet caramel and some roasted malt. Not my liking, but not bad.
