Tmoney99 (3636), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Oct 8, 2008 Bottle shared by alexadad06 at Bengals game. Poured a brown color with a large frothy off-white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate toasted malty and chocolate aroma. Medium to full body with a smooth texture. Solid balanced roasted bittersweet flavor with a medium bittersweet finish of moderate duration. Good complex brew. cbkschubert (1611), Rattlesnake Country, Arizona, USA Sep 29, 2008 <33 cl bottle from Plaza Liquors - Pours a brown color with a large light tan head. Nice lacing. Aroma and flavor is toasted malt, light chocolate, and esters. Medium body. Smooth palate. A nice beer. cbeers21 (408), Miami, Florida, USA Sep 28, 2008 Brown black with nice lasting sparkling head. Coffee and espresso notes are evident both on taste and aroma. Deep woodsy pine touches are there as well. While this brew dabbles in compexity and layere texture it remains pretty straightforward, and that is a good thing. A resonant bittering echo is all that remaines form this delightfully lightly boozy smokey beer. Decievingly drinkable. Borgen (16), Denmark Sep 24, 2008 NIce black/darkbrown apperance with a frothy withe head. Strong taste which last for a long time in the mouth. Tasted it for the first time in a little coucine in Bruxelles to a fantastic lovaal belgian dish. Then found it in a beer shop in denmark - I had to buy it.
