3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Yummy aroma of roasted malt and chocolate. The taste is round and soft with a distinct touch of roasted malt. Unfortunately, the aftertaste has in my oppinion to much bitterness and also to much burnt taste with hints of cigarette ash.

Bottle from Systembolaget, Stockholm, Sweden. Pours a pitch black with a high but kind of thin light brown foam. Aroma has a lot of coffee and a slight grassy note. Taste is slightly roasted with a bit of bitterness, or well, quite a bit for a stout. Mouthfeel is thin for such a dark beer.

Black (at least in this light) with a thin dark tan head. The aroma is alcohol, slight petroleum/oily, chocolate, leather and sweet dark fruit. Taste is more more dark fruits, malts and coffee with too much alcoholtaste imo. Good, but far from my favourite stout.

Close to black and covered by a fair beige head. Immediately roasty nose quickly hints at chocolate, but more of a milk type than the real stuff as considerable residual sugars can be perceived in here. Earthy and leafy nuances act as a complement while a sharper citrus tone peaks into the finish. A rather simple example – it’s no wonder that most ratings can barely reach 2 to 3 lines, yet the ratings remain sky high. Go figure.

Clear dark brown pour and no head. Gave me a bit of a "hiss" when I opened it but it clearly has lost some of it’s intended carbonation. At least, I hope is has. Dark fruity and roasted aroma, sour and dark roast flavor. Thin bodied but smooth and silky. the carbonation is lacking, as I mentioned and that cost it a few points. If I see it locally later I’ll give it another try. A bit disappointing, this.

Pours a rich amber brown color with almost no head. Aroma is roast, caramel, some brown sugar, and some chocolate. Flavor is brown sugar, caramel, roast, plum, and a bitter roast finish.

Thanks to my sweetness kaggie. A little thin. Flavor is whack. I wish he would have just given me his love juice instead.

malt and alchohol in aroma, slight chocolate note.
dark brown with a virtually nonexsitant head
some sweet malt in the flavor along with bitter chocolate.
very low carbonation, almost flat, gives this beer a thin mouthfeel.
finishes slighty bitter.
not sure if it’s this batch, though this is the third bottle I’ve tried from this
run and they all seem flat.
Decent beer, could have been great with proper carbonation.
