15-MAR-2013, bottle @Sonni, @Ulkløbben tasting. Cellared appr. 3 years by Sonni. Black with brown, high lasting head. Aroma is soy, malt, hard roasted, chocolate, alcohol. Taset is soy, malt, sweet stout-stuff. A bit oxidized. Finish a little malty tartness. Sweet, full body. Wow.

Pitch black colour, no head. Aroma of coffee, molasses, roasted malts, vanilla. Some aged beer aromas. Sweet flavour, light bitter, quite a bit of coffee. Finish bitter coffee, caramel. Light cloying.
Thanks for opening this one, the beer does show it’s character. I like proper aged beers, and this one is still great.
(From 66cL bottle at Colin’s 2nd Tuesday tasting @ De Molen. One of 666 bottles, according to the label.)

Bottle. Pitch black, small head. Aroma is full of vanilla, barrel, oak and roasted malts. Some molasses and mocha present. Flavor is sweet, full bodied. This is awesome, full of roast and chocolate. Great brew, awesome to try this.

Bottle at the De Molen second Tuesday tasting. Poured a crude oil like colour with absolutely no life at all. The aroma is rich and alcoholic. The flavour follows the aroma and is über rich. It’s almost like syrup, with bags of oak and fruity alcohol. You can almost chew this beer. A super example that other brewers need to follow.

At De Molen tasting. Dark brown color with a slight deep dark red to purple glow coming through. No head. Smell and taste malts, alcohol, slightly sweet, roastyness and bitter. Nice, though I think it has been better when it was just brewed.

Bottle shared with Frank and Bill, received from andrejes in amsterdam via trade. Big thanks to Andre for this one. Pours a deep black, aromas and taste of cracker jack, coffee, toffee, mollases, light peat, smoked malt, burnt sugar, and hops Pretty hoppy for the style, bitter hop and coffee finish. Medium carbonation and body.

En liten flaska från bolaget som stått ett par år. Kolsvart med beige medelhögt skum. Massor av choklad, litten rökighet, viss karamellig sötma och liten beska. Lätt vinös och riktigt drickvänlig, komplex och smakrik. fantastisk god.

Bottled. Black colour, small brown head. Aroma is roasted malts, liquorice, some toffee, mild ashes as well as some ripe fruits, raisins and mild syrupy notes. Flavour is liquorice, ashes, toffee, caramel, some ripe fruits and mild roasted notes as well. Quite on the sweet side. Full bodied.

Bottle @ RBESG Grand Tasting 2012, Bratislava. Pours black with a small creamy head. Smooth, chewy and lovely. Liquorice, roast and coffee. Nice.
