ILoveNewBeer (103), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Apr 28, 2008 There is almost a grape aroma to it. Tastes similar to a stout with it’s bitter finish. This beer is quite delicious and I’m looking forward to the other three beers that came in this sampler.
machfive55 (90), Columbia, Pennsylvania, USA Nov 21, 2008 Wow, I had this beer and can’t believe I forgot to rate it. My thoughts were that this was more of a normal stout, nothing too exciting other than the enticement that there is seaweed in the beer which is something different. There really isn’t anything odd about the beer other than I found there to be a fairly strong medicinal flavor, which was unpleasant. Not extremely great, nothing terribly appealing about this beer, it was only semi-drikable to me. KnutAlbert (2484), Oslo, Norway Oct 29, 2008 Bottle from Centra, Oslo.
Dark ruby, not very strong aroma. MAlt, tar, quite fruity. Coffe, boiled sweets. I don’t know if I can distinguish any seaweed here, but it is a nice beer nevertheless. daknole (1131), Plantation, Florida, USA Oct 18, 2008 This is an interesting and a pleasant surprise. Dark, dark pour. Tan head. Aroma is a bit smoky, chocolate, nuts, and nice. Flavor is smoky, sweet-tart, with some slight hints of coffee and chocolate. Mouthfeel is a tad thin. but I liked this beer. OleR (1382), Oslo, Norway Oct 17, 2008 500 ml bottle. Tanned, big bubbled medium-sized head. Dark brown, almost opaque, ruby hued body. Cocoa and milk-chocolate aroma. Some nutty, almost cheesy scents. Light sour-sweet malt flavor. Also some mild spices and chocolate. Low on the hops. Medium body. A faint bitterness in a sour-malty ending. Does not stand out, but goes well down. larsga (2448), Oslo, Norway Oct 11, 2008 Huge brown-beige lasting head. Deep dark red barely translucent body. Roasty milky chocolatey aroma with earthy coffee notes. Sweetish mild salty earthy milky coffee and chocolate taste, balanced and harmonic. Mid-bodied. Dry roasty papery coffee aftertaste with floral notes. Nice, and unusual. (0.5l bottle, Centra, Oslo.)
