Apr 18, 2008 Chocolate nose with roasted malts and some vanilla. Pours black with a tan head. Smooth chocolate, with some chocolate yogurt, its very smooth but a little too sweet for me.

Mar 31, 2008 Pour is opaque brownish black with a dense tan head...smell is lightly woody and hints of sour with hints of fruity earthyness...Mike is right, it does smell like JPs Madrugada Obscura a little...taste is roasty with chocolate and yeast with some lightly funky wood notes...mouthfeel is very thin and very carbonated...finish is slightly dry...

Mar 18, 2008 RATING #3500 !
Big flip top bottle and served in my big Karmeliet glass: Black with a tan frothy head and okay lace. The aroma has notes of bakers chocolate, prune, fig, grape bubblegum, light heather and herbs and a distinct brettanomyces twang (on purpose methinks). The taste is twangy and fruity with a moderate sourness all about the palate. Chalky chocolate and carob nuggets on the finish. The mouth feel is far too thin for the flavor profile. Well it is different for sure, reminds me a bit of Jolly Pumpkin sour stout in a dark beer with bretty and lacto overtone. Not worth the money as is the case of so many of the big bottle Italian imports.

Mar 16, 2008 Jet black with a lasting tan head. Chocolate, dark fruits and brettanomyces in the aroma. Dry, with a bit of chocolate and some brett in the flavour - and the brett doesn’t seem like a good idea at all.

Mar 9, 2008 Pours dark brown into a snifter. Off-white head quickly subsides to hug rim. Sharp, sour chocolate aromas. Smooth with upfront aspirin and sour summer fruit. Lasting, dry cocoa finish.
