On tap at European Beer Festival, Copenhagen. Served a next to black body under a tan head leaving nice lacings. Coffee, chocolate and roasted malt in the aroma. It is very smooth in the mouth, full-bodied and somehow dryish, even though it is sugary sweet. Coffee, burnt malt, some chocolate and a little hoppy bitterness too. Long coffee-like finish with coffee-like bitterness too. Lovely. (080913)
