Bottle/12oz - Pours a very dark black/brown in color with no head and almost no carbonation. Aroma... dark roasted malts, oak/vanilla, chocolate, sweet herbs, sweet malts and plenty of red fruit... awesome. Palate is quite thick and smooth on the tongue. Flavor is medium sweet with lots of fruit... cherries and cranberries (!) mostly... lovely. Lingering dark roasted malts, cranberry tart/bitter and a decent amount of chocolate. Alcohol, in spite of its incredible strength, is well muted and offset by the other strong flavors of the beer. This is a masterful and awesome beer... one of the most enjoyable, if not strongest, I have had for a very long time!! Truly an amazing/excellent beer...

Scura intensa sormontata da poca schiuma, alcool e caramello, poco carbonara. Provocatoria e aggressiva. Tutta da scoprire!

In bottle at Craig’s BrewDog tasting. A black beer with a fair tan head. Aroma of roasty malt, dark chocolate, caramel, cranberries and alcohol. Similar flavours with mild carbonation and an oily mouth-feel. Mildly bitter with lingering roasty malt and Weetabix. Nice.

(Draught) Pours black. The aroma is roasted, syrupy and woodsy/oaky up front with undertones of flowers and berries. Hints of, violet, blackberries and incense. Well-balanced nose, all the ingredients harmonize with each other. The flavour is smooth roasted with notes of coffee, dark chocolate, oak, flowers and berries. Hints of liquorice and maybe a touch of jasmine. The mouthfeel is numbing and round. Medium to full bodied.

330 ml bottle shared by bsuedekum- thanks again, Blake! Batch 001, best by 31/11/09 (since when are there 31 days in November?). Aroma of peat, smoked malts, oak, soy, chocolate, roasted malts, and brown sugar. Flavor of spices, toasted oak, peat, earth, chocolate, and some berry fruits. Light-bodied, thinned out over the years, with low carbonation and a smoky, roasty, watery mouthfeel. Jasmine and cranberry were hard to pick out in this one. Good, but probably better fresher.

gorgeous stout lots of flavour, and alcohol warmth absolutely worth the outrageous price! definately a treat beer would recomend it to anyone

Deep black body with a dark brown head (to the extent that one can speak of a head, there is almost no head). Aroma mainly of coffee, but pop up as well: prunes, dark fruit, cognac, brandy: very complex aroma but not very attractive. Moderately bitter, heavily sweet flavour with actually a rather weak mouthfeel. Not as dense as one would have expected. Ok, not great.

Heavy coffee aroma. Small, light brown head. Fair lacing. Black body. Light sweet and light bitter flavor with heavy coffee notes. Medium to full palate.
