3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/2028/01/2013 Brasserie 4:20 (2008 vintage bottle). Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma color cappuccina, leggera e poco persistente. Naso un po’ sporco, sentori di gomma bruciata, ossidazione, malti tostati, cioccolata, alcol. In bocca è dolciastra, cioccolatosa, caramello, ha perso un po’ di corpo e di carbonazione. Non male, nonostante l’età, ma andrebbe ribevuta fresca.

Tap at Fermentoren, Copenhagen. The aroma is liqourice and alcoholic. The flavour is rich and oily, with lots of roasted malt and alcoholic bitterness. A super rich, full bodied beer and really great to taste. It certainly leaves its mark!

Bottle. Pours motor oil black with no head whatsoever. Nose is extremely weak. Eventually picked up some dark fruits followed by roasted barley. Taste is similar but roasted malt is up front backed up by the fruit. Light char note evident on the finish. Palate is full with a decent carb. Overall this is a huge disappointment. I was eagerly anticipating this one. I'm not tasting any off flavors but I can't help but wonder if this is off or infected somehow. Will definitely try again at some point just in case.

Nice cacao nose with some coffee. Beautiful beer. Inky dark with chocolate head. Taste was complex yet balanced. Really good stuff

Oh yeah. Pours oily black with a thick, fluffy, dark brown, fudgy head. Aroma of coffee, gun powder, licorice, chocolate and slight ripe fruits. Banana too i think. The taste is a little more burned than expected, and contains lots of coffee. Dark dark chocolate, but also these hidden fruit and sweet licorice notes. Lots of stuff going on, but well balanced!

22 oz bottle from Supermarket Liquors. Black with a small brown head that disappears to nothing. Roasted malty aroma with dark chocolate and light coffee. Similar flavor, fairly sweet with mild dark fruits and light bitter hops. Full bodied, creamy and smooth. Very nice.

Poured a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of heavy roasted malt, dark chocolate and bitter coffee. Full, smooth body, flavour of the aroma with a bit of liquorice and a dry, bitter end.
