4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20 stefannilssons (325) - SWEDEN - DEC 19, 2011
Det här är en riktigt bra öl, maltigheten balanseras snyggt mot humlen som blommar ut bra mot slutet. Efterbeskan går inte heller av för hackor och lämnar mig med ett leende på läpparna.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 tia (466) - Sandston, Virginia, USA - SEP 27, 2011
Not sure if this is the correct beer. Had it on tap @ Green Leafe and the menu just said "Raven Black IPA- Denmark" but this is the only Black IPA on the Denmark list that says Raven (at least in English).
Very dark with light brown creamy head. Nice fresh piney/resiny aroma. Tastes light and dry and bitter. Nice refreshing light Black IPA.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 fiulijn (10383) - Como, ITALY - AUG 27, 2011
Draught at Lord Nelson, Copenhagen Black color; small beige head. Mild aroma, fresh, with some fruits, chocolate, ember, some yeast; interesting. Medium body strength, roasted malt flavor, but not too aggressive, surely dry, with a refreshing hopping. The final is a bit too dry. Not bad, but personally I don’t share the passion for Dark IPAs, I just don’t think that the burnt character of black malts fit with the fruitiness of the hops; at least what is needed is some softer roasting level and some sweetness..

Tap, Lord Nelson Aug. ’10. Two fingers of rich foamy tan head; nearly black but mahogany is closer to the color. Big citrusy hops in the aroma, grapefruit, and a touch of roast and chocolate. Coffee flavors come into the flavor, but the bitterness continues leaveing a resiny and piny finish. Very soft body, and a bit lighter. Nice.
