This one poured a very dark brown with a beige head. Aroma was herbal hops, dark roast, smoke, and dark chocolate. Flavor was similar, very thick and chewy fudge layered with smoke and dark roast. Similar to expedition.

4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours jet black, super viscous with a dark brown head. One of the sexiest looking stouts I’ve ever seen. Huge aroma, notes of coffee, chocolate and roasted malts most prevalent. Some hazelnut notes, some vanilla and a slight booziness. Lots of coffee on the taste, some vanilla and hazelnut. Some ultra dark and bitter chocolate, dark fruits, and a little sugary sweetness. Totally full bodied, very well balanced and delicious.

On tap at Torst. Pours a dark brown color with a caramel colored head. Aroma of roast, chocolate, and vanilla with a hint of dark fruit. A vanilla smooth silkiness to it. Taste of chocolate, coffee, and slight notes of dark fruit. Nicely done. Medium mouthfeel.
3.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Pitch black pour with a short creamy, fluorescent brown head. Aroma of lots of roasted malt, molasses, some dark fruit comes forward. Raisin and prune. Coffee and chocolate notes. Wow, huge in body. Thick creamy big flavor. Lots of chocolat this time with some burning alcohol. Intense feel to it. Quite some bitterness, soft sour hint from the roasted grains like you get in coffee as well. Lots of sweetness as well, it leaves a sugary feel on your lips. Massive body, you can eat this with a spoon. It’s a bit too alcoholic and boozy, which is a shame actually, because the chocolat and roasted malts make up a great big sipper.

3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Purple black with a brown head that fades to a coat. Aroma of tar, treacle, mocha, vanilla, plump raisins. Oily, very low carbonation. Lots of mocha and sweet with it. Vanilla, some raisins and prunes, lightening bitterness, surprisingly clean finish. Alcohol sticks out a bit. No particular magic, but they’re big and well balanced flavours and I like the way the finish lifts the richness away.
