3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Palme (2252) - Bergen, NORWAY - MAY 16, 2013
On tap @ Henrik. Lovely deep dark brown, as good as black actually with a big really dense and creamy brown top. It has a strong roasted aroma with lots of licorice and chocolate. It smells really really good this. Fantastic roasted with a strong dark chocolate sweetness. Really notable! Ah.. That’s a really good stout! Loads of roasted goodness with both vanilla and dark salty licorice. Fresh hoppy lingering and the flavor really evolves in the mouth and throat. A really good one! (one hand rating) 19.04.2013

Svart öl med stort brunt skum. Doft: Kaffe, choklad, fikon, trä, vanilj, romrussin glass, tjära, hav. Smak: Mineraler, choklad, kaffe, citrus, ananas, tjära, vanilj, lakrits. God, men skulle nog vara ännu godare med lite högre söttma.
