Dec 21, 2008 Bottle from Systembolaget.
Probably drunk a bit early from its peak but better than when I had it 7 months younger. We split the bottle on 4 and it was probably one to few.
It smells of soy and alcohol. Full bodied, sort of sweet and malty taste.

Dec 21, 2008 Updated: Jan 2, 2009Bottle. Black. Smells alcohol, tar and soy. Tastes like a burnt pop corn with soy. This is an extreme beer, but the 17,5% alcohol is still well hidden. Big taste.

Dec 19, 2008 375, foiled, corked, and baled. Pours jet black, with a loose, sudsy, surging, sloppy burnt tan head. Plenty of lace, and, even after a fair little while, a decent slurry of foamy film across the top. And this is not the newest bottle by any means; it has been sitting for 8 months. Roasty, plummy, highly boozy nose--boozy enough to give you a bit of a headache. Creamy medium body. A bit oily, but not especially sticky. Roasty, chocolatey, plummy, licoricey, and quite boozy mid-palate. Very good, very attention-grabbing. Not completely amazing but certainly not a disappointment at all.

Dec 17, 2008 Draught at EBF 2008, Copenhagen. Pure black. Aroma - alcohol, dark malts, vinuous, tarry. Extremely boozy, in fact, rather too much for me.

Dec 16, 2008 Bottle from aplusbreaks. Pours very viscous, black with a a very thin, wispy, tan head. Specks of lace. Smells of super dark roasted malts, slightly sweet with some burnt scents and a bit of rubbing alcohol. Tastes super sweet and dark ripe/rotten fruity. Lots of roast and lots of alcohol. Slightly sour with a good amount of smoke as well. Full body, good carbonation. Sorry to say, that much like SA Triple Bock I am not a fan of this brew. It gives me the shivers.

Dec 8, 2008 What a strange name for a very individual beer.Black and very flat with as you would expect a strong presence of alcohol. Roasted sherry like flavours dominate. Drunk on a cold winters night
and reached the spots other beers could not come near.

Dec 7, 2008 EBF 08. Black with a brown head. Nose is slightly sour, roasted, espresso and cocoa tones. Mouth is just intense, the best wakeup call my mouth has had at 11.30 am in a long time. Burnt espresso, burning feeling, rich and dark and thick. Not too much alcohol present. Dry mouthfeel, amazing.

Dec 6, 2008 Bottle from Ølbutikken. Black as the mortal sin. Thick, whipped cream rusty head. Agressive aroma of burnt sugar, tar, artifical sweetener and extracted fruits. Taste is extremely sweet and roasted. Dark fruit notes, salmiac, burnt malts and the most bitter chocolate ever found. Harsh, resiny bitterness. Full-bodied. Glue-ish texture. Big and not so beautiful.
