Opaque dark brown beer with a tidy tan head. Palate is crisp and dry. Minerally dark malt with a strong coffee and marmite streak. Trace of sweet fruit underneath. Minerally fresh and tangy, Okay but something of a retrograde step for this beer methinks.

dmac (3219) - Toms River, New Jersey, USA - FEB 22, 2013
Bomber from Wine King Wall. Poured a slightly murky orange/amber with a smaler to average at best sized foamy off white head. Aroma is loaded with oxidation, cardboard and molassess along with caramel and old vanilla a touch of dates and raisin as well. Mouthfeel is medium with average carbonation and a decent lingering aftertaste. Flavor of oxidized caramel, bad vainlla, old raisins, dates, bad figs, old nuts. Blah it’s okay at best.

ShaneJ (106) - AUSTRALIA - FEB 22, 2013
Bottle shared with mate. Strong/Scotch ales not usually my thing, but this one was quite good. Strong alcohol over the top of sweet malt, stewed fruit, some spice. Heavy mouthfeel.

ciaranc (388) - Dublin, IRELAND - FEB 10, 2013
Dark as like you, tan head. Coffee and liquorice nose. Some bovril notes too! More intense liquorice in the the flavour. Thick mouthfeel. A great late night beverage.

Un bel colore brunito, un delicato profumo di sapa e un dolce sapore di malto. Veramente sorprendente come miele e luppolo stiano bene assiene! Caramel, caramel

Simonsen (268) - NORWAY - FEB 2, 2013
Flaske kjøpt på vinmonopolet. Mørkerød nesten svart farge , lett skum. Den er visstnok brygget på 10 forskjellige typer malt , og det merkes godt. Smaker brent malt, kaffe,lakris,rosin rosin og honning . En smakfull ale

Emeister84 (464) - Charlottesville, Virginia, USA - JAN 20, 2013
Aromas of toffee, cherries, and molasses. Brown with golden highlights. Sweet and savory, with some earthy, licorice-like flavors. Medium body, very low carbonation, and finishes sweet but not cloying.

danielyabu (904) - União da Vitória, BRAZIL - JAN 20, 2013
small creamy lightbrown head. fair lacing. mostly diminishing. flat thick dark brownish-black body. aroma: charcoal, soy sauce, caramel, heavy nutty malt. if: moderate sweet light bitter. ff: moderate sweet bitter; long duration. palate: medium full body, creamy texture, lively carbonation, metallic finish. presence de shoyu aparece também no paladar, tem o dulçor maltado de café no paladar lembrando o de boas dunkel, aquecimento alcoólico bem perceptível mas não mascara nenhuma das interessantes nuances dessa saborosa cerveja, mordida carbônica dá um charme extra, o amargor lembra uma mistura de café e shoyu, sem puxar exageradamente pra nenhum dos lados; sente-se a presença de mel no background do dulçor, mas nada sobrepujante, como em uma BP ou na cerveja de mel da Fuller’s, por exemplo, $24,5 120 s
