4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Bottle, batch 507. Pours black as a moonless night with the darkest head I’ve ever seen and thick, oily lacing. Hefty nose of chocolate malts, blackstrap molasses, and charred oak. Rich malty taste of chocolate, some licorice, cinnamon, and a tiny, wild, woody, vinegar bite on the back end. Nice stout.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Pours pitch black with a huge foamy dark brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate and notes of licorice. Taste like aroma plus dark fruits, oak and alcohol. Lower side of fullbodied with perhaps a bit too much carbonation and an oily texture. Initially sweet but with a long smoky, bitter and slightly sour aftertaste. Tastes a lot better than it sounds though.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Very dark, big brown hedtad. Complex aroma, dark chocolate, iron, smoke, alcohol, almonds and soy sauce. Taste of chocolate, soy sauce, more iron. Medium sweet, quite bitter, slight sour notes. Medium mouthfeel, medium carbonation. Weird, but not weird enough to make it interesting. Bit of a disappointment, faulty bottle?

500ml bottle from Vinmonopolet. Big light brown head that fades quickly. Dark brown, almost black solid body. Aroma is sweet, with hints of wood, coffee and leather. Taste adds raisins and liquorice. The alcohol is really well hidden in this one.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
500 ml bottle. Pours black with brown head similar to dark chocolate milk. Aromas of dark chocolate ice cream, light smoke, and heavily roasted malts. Rich flavors of roasted malts, dark fruit, brownies, and lingering bitter dark chocolate. 2012 vintage seems to be much better than previous year.
