Quetzalcoatl (153), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Sep 25, 2004 Tastes like a sweet stout with a handful of berries thrown in. Little to no carbonation/head, and the berry flavor is easily perceptible. Not bad. veronika (410), Sweden Sep 2, 2004 Black, small head. Aroma from tar, coffee and some violet. Flavor from slaty licorice and coffee. Mild finish. maeib (4683), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England Sep 1, 2004 Bottled. A black beer with practically no head. There is a smokiness to the smell after an initial fruitiness. The roasted oats comes through throughout. There is very little fruit in the flavour, which is more typical of a sweet stout. A good beer but a little bit too much going on in an unbalanced manner. Skjonne (9), Søborg, Denmark does not count Sep 1, 2004 Stout’ish. The berries come through very clearly. Too clearly to my taste. Too sweet and too thin Dalle (1146), Skørping, Denmark Aug 31, 2004 Black with brown head. Roasted malts, liqourice, fruity notes. Pleasent, but nothing special IMO. JensenTaster (1585), Denmark Aug 24, 2004 (on bottle) Smells like vodka witn black currant, very sweet and alcoholic. Was looking forward to the taninsweet and stron elderberry flavours, but instead I get a roasted, watery feel. Why? I have had porters with less roastyness, but this was suppose to be elderberry-ish. obisbeer (558), Barcelona, Spain Aug 17, 2004 Dark as night, with thin or no head. Chokecherry, earth, and strange berry notes. Slight prickle in the mouth with roasted flavors. Berry, chocolate, witha flat bitter finish. Not sure what to think, not a big fan of the beer though it has an inticing quality to it. rlgk (3377), Vårgårda, Sweden Aug 14, 2004 Black with a small head. Aroma from tar and some licorice. Flavor brings tar as well, with cocoa and some vinous touches in the finish.Some elder was found as well.
