Bottle, 75cl corked. Bryg no 01. A PITA to open, the cork was really stuck and needed a wine opener. There were no carbonation pressure to help it out either, which is also seen on the poured beer. It’s flat, with some beige bubbles on top. Slightly unclear in the glass, dark, dark brown. Roasted nose with a burnt touch, chocolate and coffee, and some spiced notes. Chili in the flavor, which is mostly burnt malts giving chocolate and coffee. Some licorice notes. Rather dry, full-bodied and flat, some warmth from the bell peppers, which I suspect has been mixed with some chilies. Nice. The finish is lasting, with the same flavors found initially. A nice beer indeed, but it needs carbonation. It’s not very interesting drinking flat, except for the pepper flavor and warmth. 100814

Bottle. Pours clear dark brown with no real head. Aroma is sweet, malty, light tar, chocolate and a peppery edge. Low carbonation, bordering on flat with slight dryness. Flavour is sweet at first, light astringent, chocolate, mild pepper, some roasted malts. Light burning with some chocolate in the finish. Okay, but too bad it is so flat.
