Bottle. Huge head with excellent duration. Color is dark brown. Aroma and taste are roast malt, coffee, chocolate, caramel, hops and fruits.

Sample as Nr 0281 at Ølfestival 2012. Black with little head. A little smoke and coffee in the aroma. There’s cola, berries and some cold coffee in the taste, but what fascinates me more is how unique and unusual the beer seems, even if it’s hard to decipher why this is the case. To taste it is like stepping back into the past. Just a shame that there doesn’t seem to be much liquorice and caramel as advertised. As my first experience with a Bøgedal beer it probably wasn’t the best one to pick from their lineup, but it’s left me wanting more from this idiosyncratic brewery.

Sample from tap, CBF 2012. As Nr. 0281, mørk. Dark mahogany colour with a light tanned head. Sweet aroma with roasted malts, caramel, hops, licorice and chocolate. Sweet taste. Medium body with a slick texture. Finished sweet with notes of roasted malts, caramel, chocolate and hops. Pleasant.
