UPDATED: MAY 23, 2012 One of the best I’ve ever had. Bottled, from Zly Casy, Prague. Dark, with a modest head. Lots of chocolate and roasted malts in taste and aroma, incredibly smooth (the smoother-feeling beer I’ve had was the Left Hand Milk Stout). A great beer, not shocking or innovative in any way, but incredibly pleasant.

Bottle. Pours a black, reddish colour with little head. Faint aroma of malts and grains.. Flavour has some grainy notes and a dry finish. Some roastiness present.. easy drinkable. Quite a watery mouthfeel. Ok dark lager.. nothing more, nothing less.

[5/9/12] Draught at Fermentoren in Copenhagen. Black-colored with a creamy light brown head. Roasted malt aroma with some coffee beans and dark chocolate hints. Sweetish roasty flavor with coffee and a bit of milk chocolate notes. Medium-bodied. Alright.

Ottima Black lager di color ebano. Al naso note di cioccolata caffè e malto torrefatto. Al palato si rinnovano le stesse impressioni con l’aggiunta di una buona luppolatura. A tratti un pò troppo liscia, ma stiamo parlando di frivolezze. Ottima birra.

Pours a clear and brown beer with a beige head. The aroma is malt, sweetness, chocolate and notes of soya. The flavor follows the nose with additional bitterness. The palate is sweetness. Overall this is an average beer.

Brewdogs best beer. Probably the most worthy beer in the world. Smooth smoke and a awesome drinkability

Clear but very dark red-brown beer. Crispish semi dry palate. Minerally and somewhat tangy malt that is a little bit roasty. Finishes watery with minerals and hop bitterness. Not my favourite dark lager by a country mile.

Pours brown with a beige head. Aroma is roasted breaddy malt and light coffee. Flavour is dry roasted caramel and light coffee.

Bottle from Stirchley Wines and Spirits, Pershore Road, Birmingham. Pours black like a very black thing. Aroma of malts, strong coffee, fruitcake. Mouthfeel fizzy and slightly rough to start but also thin and watery at the end. Being a BrewDog beer I was expecting it to taste of pomegranate mixed with dynamite and snow leopard; however, this is a straight down the middle malty lager, not overly strong and with no bells and whistles. Yes, it’s drinkable but that taste is an anticlimax - even more so given the calibre of the brewery.
