Dark brown pour. Sweet chocolate pour. Nice roasted malts. Tasted sweet malts with a dark chocolate bitter finish. Pretty good way to start off the tasting. blutt59 (2042), Dallas, Texas, USA Nov 6, 2009 bottle, thanks to bu11zeye, dark brown with tan foam, lacks much aroma, light cocoa flavors and some spice BMan1113VR (2756), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA Nov 6, 2009 Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a tan head and a deep brown, near black body. Aroma of tar, chocolate, brown sugar and molasses. Taste is chocolate, and light pepper heat at the back with some earthy notes in between. Medium viscosity and light carbonation. Wolfbass (30), Firenze, Italy Nov 4, 2009 Black color and creamy foam, the aroma is warm and attractive with prevalence of chocolate and coffee, the body is structured; but the true delight is the taste that evolves him in a dry and imposing speziato, that leaves the very clean mouth from the bitterish one. Good Imperial. Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Oct 28, 2009 Near black colored with red hints, little light brown head. Licoricy aroma with roastiness, peppery spices and salt, vanilla and dry cocoa come up too. Medium to full bodied. Flavor is also smooth with roastiness in start, cocoa and thin vanilla here too. Strong pepper comes up and lasts in aftertaste, still fits here ok, does not cover anything else. scrizzz (1250), kirkland, Washington, USA Oct 26, 2009 Thanks Doug! Dark charcoal aroma, little waxy and a hint of spice. But only suggestively. Jet black, tan head, moderate lacing. Full mouthfeel, a larger gulp revealed the chipotle smoky heat and sting that is tempered nicely by the burnt grain and creamy body. Dig the twist. Ungstrup (14754), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 16, 2009 Bottled. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma has notes of sweet malt, roasted malt, and a bit of bourbon. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of roasted malt and alcohol. The body is light compared to the flavors.
