Dark brown with nice head. Aroma roasted malt, hops, chocolate. Taste roasted malt, bitter chocolate, hops. Medium body, text smooth. Finish bitter

Mycket trevlig doft av kakao och vanilj. Smaken är lite med avtagande och besk. Eftersmaken är mycket torr och jag är inte jätteimpad.

Draught. High creamy and lasting off-white head. Pitch black body. Mild swee coffee cocoa aroma and flavor. Relatively roasted malt flavor, relatively sweet with a high cartbonation and a long sweet aftertaste.

Draught at the brewpub
The color is almost black, with too small head. Se aroma of dark malts, light smell of ripe fruits (apples). Compared to the Möllan Porter tasted side to side, the mouthfeel is not so smooth and the flavor not so chocolatey; it plays more with medium roasted malts, and the chocolate/cacao is in the background, not so evident. Correct bitterness, with very light malt acidity.
Pleasant, without thrills.

750 ml bottle courtesy of Roland. Consumed on December 25. Pours very dark brown, almost black, with a small mocha head that dissipates quickly without leaving any trace on the glass. Smell is sweet with chocolate, banana, vanilla and some alcohol. Smells almost like a banan split. Taste is rather dry and slightly bitter with cocoa, banana and toasted malts. Finish is slightly sweet without much more going on. It’s rather one-dimensional and slightly watery but yet quite easy to drink.

Sampled at CBF. Copenhagen, May 28th 2011.
Fruity berry like aroma with some sour notes, chocolate and some roasted malt. Weak body with a taste of lactose and raw cacao. Not very pleasant.

On tap at Ølfestival 2011. A dark, dark brown beer with a finger thick dark beige head. Ashtray, roasted malts and some dried fruits on the nose. A hint of cocoa too. Almost sickingly on the palate, something strange I can’t identify. Roasted malts and some dried fruits. Dry, medium bodied and quite flat. Dried fruits in the finish. A rather bad one in many ways. 110527
