30cl bottle. Medium tan head atop black body with brown edging. Aroma is moderately sweet, coffee/espresso, some bittersweet chocolate. Taste is moderately sweet, coffee, some earthy, grounds, dark chocolate. Medium-full body, light acidity, fairly smooth otherwise.

Bottle: Very dark amber coloured with ruby sparks, medium-sized tanned head with a little lace, coffee, burnt coffee-beans, wood toasted malt and molasses in the really complex aroma; solid bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied and smooth; lingering coffeeish finish - cough syrup detectable - with a lingering, as well, balancing malt bitterness in the aftertaste. Yes, a goody....

Black coffee collor with no head. Smell of dark pure chocolate. Taste of coffee. Definately one-of-a-kind beer.

Bottled. Pours pitch black with a smalle creamy tan head. Nose of roasted malts, coffee and caramel. Sweet flavor with again roasted malts, coffee and notes of dark fruit. Mdium to full bodied, oily texture and soft carbonaton. Ends up dry and quite bitter. A nice one.

33cl long kneck bottle. Brown and creamy head, persistent foam, deep dark brown beer. Nose is hoppy, flavors of coffee, caramel, roasted malt and soy sauce. Taste is quite bitter, you can easily feel the coffee with some touch of caramel. Bitterness is very dry.

Aroma di caffè, malti tostati, liquirizia, cioccolato. Gusto inizialmente equilibrato per poi sbilanciarsi verso note amare.

33 cl bottle @ home. Pours dark brown with some sediment and a small mocha head that fades leaving some lacing. Aroma is roasted malt, espresso, and soy sauce. Taste is coffee and roasted malt with a little bit of warming alcohol.

Bottle from AJ's. Lighter aroma. Bready malts. Not a ton of coffee. What's there works well with the rest of the beer but is nothing special in and of itself. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
