 Blom (588), Odense, Denmark
Jul 21, 2008 Dark brown with a grey head. Strong aroma of coffee, oil and dark chocolate. Nice bitterness in the flavours that are full of coffee, liquorice and alchol. The palate however is a bit weak with a medium-body and a thin texture.

Jul 20, 2008 12 oz. into sniffer. Near black pour that looked thin coming out of the bottle. Not much for a head, and it fades fast and is a dirty light white color. Aroma of chocolate, hops, vanilla, molasses, raisins, and booze. Flavor is pretty chocolaty with some nice smooth vanilla notes that are balanced out by some nice bitter hop notes and an alcohol warmth on the finish. Pretty thin on the palate - medium bodied - for the style, but still smooth with soft carbonation. Overall: good brew, not extremely unique but definitely solid.

Jul 20, 2008 The chosen one for my 1500th rating. 355ml bottle from Utobeer in London. Almost devil-black in body appearance. Moderate beige head leaving fair lacing on the glass. Delicious aroma of plain chocolate and cocoa. Initial flavour of sweet, dark fruits and berries being a bit distracted by herbs and dry cheese. An alcohol touch beneath. Full bodied (19.08.2008).

Jul 17, 2008 I’ve never been that impressed with Left Hand brews. They seem either overly complex or overly simple. There’s no middle ground. On the other hand, it’s easily available. Given a choice, I’d drink something else.

Jul 10, 2008 Murky brown with a brown slowly dissipating brown head. Aroma of molasses, roasted malt, alcohol, coffee, caramel and chocolate. Thick body taste of alcohol, molasses, chocolate, wafer and sweet malts. Semi-sweet finish with some alcohol burn.
