3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20(Draught@Pikkulintu, rated 2011-12-03, 11% ABV) Almost black with a firm, lightly lacy, light beige head. Quite mild aroma with espresso, some licorice, notes of smokiness. Lightly peaty malty and smoky flavor with rye pudding and coffee. Quite full body, soft CO2. May not be the most complex beer in the world, but is very well balanced. Coffee is not aggressive, but blends in very well. Alcohol (11% in the keg version) is fully hidden.

Pours a nice black beer with a not very long lasting brown head. It smells like chocolate and coffee. The taste is coffee like and a bit bitter. I would have liked more carbo but still pretty good.

Bottle from ABC Beers, Den Haag. Poured a dark mahogany colour with a thin broken off-white head. As one might expect, the aroma is huge coffee. The flavour is medium to strong bitter with lots of alcohol liqourice bitterness, coffee, roasted malt and dark chocolate. There is a hint of sweetness on the palate too. A superb beer and one of my favourites from Emelisse.

Bottled 330ml. -from Sörspecialista.hu, Budapest. Black coloured, medium sized brown head, pure coffee nose. Roasted malt, coffee and light chocolate with rather sharp hint of alcohol. Bitterish roasty finish. Pleasant but all in all nothing exciting here.

Birra molto equilibrata nonostante il grado alcolico. che non sente quasi per niente, dove emergono sentori di caffè al naso che poi mettendo in bocca vengono confermati.
