Indra (1828), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA Aug 21, 2008 22oz. bottle. Dark, sweet malt aroma, roasty and lightly fruity with notes of coffee, dark breadiness, chocolate, caramel, cola and some light, plummy fruit. Deep, dark red-brown color, nearly black, with a fine, but lasting, tan ring head. Flavor is predominantly malty as well, showing some dark fruitiness and hop citrus in the background, but otherwise roasty dark maltiness dominates, with suggestions of rich dark chocolate, espresso, prune, fig, toffee and with only a very slight bitterness at the finish. Palate is thick and smooth, body is adequately full. Far from the train wreck that it could’ve been, this one actually held a small amount of intrigue for me. sk8viking (6078), Copenhagen, Denmark Aug 6, 2008 Bottle. A dark red beer with a big beige head. The aroma is of yeast, dark fruits, glue and alcohol, the taste is much the same just without the glue. Medium body with a alcoholic finish. uhre (235), Denmark Aug 1, 2008 Dark with a bit of red. The aroma is of dark fruit with roasted barley and caramel. Flavor is of dark fruit, caramel and a coffee aftertaste. McGarnigle (163), Rochester, New York, USA Jul 31, 2008 Very dark. Full-bodied with soft carbonation. The aroma hints at citrus hops, but this is mostly malty. Choclatey, roasty, with dark fruits underneath. Finish kicks in with some bitter hops, but that’s relatively minor, and keeps it dry. It’s hard to do more than sip it. Good value at $5+ a bomber. KimJohansen (3063), Copenhagen V, Denmark Jul 30, 2008 Dark brown with medium dark beige head. Swwet aromaen with roasted malt, coffee and mild chocolate notes. Sweet flavor with roasted malt, hops, caramel and coffee notes. Ends bitter.
