Bottle at Nya Tröls, Malmö. Clear dark brown coloured with a medium sized off white head. Light roasted aroma of chocolate with roasted notes and notes of butterscotsch. Fruity flavour of chocolate with roasted notes and notes of hops. Light roasted finish. Like a copy of guinness, at least this one isn’t as watery as guinness.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Black with small beige head. Ashy papery nose. Malt sweet with some burnt flavours. Fairly light bodied with clean, lager-like mouthfeel . Notes of sugar before a short finish.

Bottle brown, 500 ml, extract of wort 13%
Appearance: Pours, deep, brownish red under the light, visually black, all in all very nice body colour, head is initially medium and slowly decraeses to small, frothy in texture (not creamy as in the original stout), head is off-white, cappuccino like in colour, carbonation of body is visually weak and all in all not clearly seen due to its darkness, no head lacing.
Aroma:Yeasty, mild, creamy, aromatic hoppy nose on top that makes it different from earthy hoppy accent of Irish stout, deeper in some burned roastiness, cherry fruit, pulm, bock like aroma, not strong.
Flavour:Texture is wattery with some roastines, ashy accents and slight bitterness, soltyness, tangy malt, a hint of smoke mixed with light hoppy nose, remanding a foreign stout more than original stout. I can’t agree with a lable message: " a real Irish Stout" starting from tha fact that texture is neither dry nor creamy, but simply wattery.
Palate:Body is light to medium, texture is wattery mainly, carbonation is gentle on palate, finis feel is flat, a bit dull, not that fresh.

Near black colored with red hints. Sweet and roasted, even some berries and caramel in aroma, not the best stout aroma here. Medium bodied, watery palate. Flavor is also roasted but still boring with sweetness and slight caramel.
