Bottle at Århus Ølfestival 2008. Pours a dark brown with a very small offwhite had (looks a bit like a coke). The aroma is chocolate, nutty with sweet toffee. The flavour is quite sweet again with chocolate and toffee and a bit hazelnut.

Bottle 33cl @ Ølfestival Aarhus 2008.
Clear medium orange amber color with a average, frothy - creamy, good - fair lancing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, drain malty, moderate dark berry. Flavor is moderate to light heavy sweet with a average duration. (Sweetnes is dark berry sweet). Body is medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft. (160508)

Bottle at Århus Ølfestival. There’s a ruby glow in this almost black beer, and it’s topped by a nice, beige head. Alcohol, dried fruits, chocolate and coffee in the aroma. Warming, full-bodied, quite effervescent mouthfeel with flavors of dried fruit, roasted malt, coffee and hops. Quite alcoholic finish. Sure deserves a full release, not just a test batch for the festival. (080516)

(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of yespr. Pours a hazy orangey brown with a creamy, beige head. Aroma of coffee and burned malts. Full-bodied, notes of sweetish burned malt and coffee. Lightly bitter finish. Not bad at all. 290508

Bottle. Dark brown colour with small creamy off-white mostly lasting head. Aroma is roasted malt with notes of chocolate. Sweet fruity flavor.

Sample at Aarhus beerfestival. Medium head with medium duration. Color is black/brown. Aroma and taste are vanila, chocolate and mild roasted malt.

Brown/black with a creamy head. The aroma has notes of a slightly sour, roasted malt and hints of licorice. The flavour has sweetness, notes of candy sugar, a light sourness and sweet licorice. The sweetness is a bit too strong IMO.

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2008 Botella. Gracias a Jesper. Was my Danish Carlsberg rating # 100... but turned to #99. Hazy deep dark brown colour. Smoky well roasted chocolate aroma. Good mouthfeel. The flavour has a good profound roastiness with dark chocolate, coffee and caramel.
