LooseCannon (520), Norfolk, Virginia, USA May 10, 2008 Thanks to Immy!!!! 22oz bottle. Pours pitch black in color with dark brown head. Aroma of black coffee and dark chocolate. Taste of coffee, dark chocolate and roasted malt with bitter finish. WOW thanks Tim. jcwattsrugger (3381), Florida and, New Jersey, USA May 9, 2008 22oz bottle-pours a thick creamy brown head and black color. Aroma is roasty, dark malt, oatmeal. Taste is roasty, dark malt-chocolate/coffee beans, alcohol, lactose. Bitter/acidic in the finish. Nicely done but not my style. Ofortuna (266), Grafton, Wisconsin, USA May 8, 2008 From my backlog. Decent head and lacing with the strong aroma of bitter coffee and hops. Signature Mikkeller odd mineral character that I find present in most of their beers. Not to my liking when combined with the style of hops in this one. I do really enjoy the coffee flavour and bitter finish which I was hoping for in this style. Decent mouthfeel and body, but would’ve liked to have seen some type of silky or creamy character on the palate. Nice use of specialty malts with a wonderful slightly smokey/bitter/roasted flavour. Wanderer (33), Copenhagen, Denmark May 7, 2008 DAMN! Pours a dark very brown color, dark brown head. roasted coffee hints chocolate, hops, and hard roasted malts. Amazing taste... amazing balance. mjs (263), Finland May 5, 2008 (Bottle at Pikkulintu on 2008-02-23) Very dark brown colour. Small head. Hops and roasted malts in nose. Full bodied. Roasted malts and hops in taste that moves from sweetish to bitter. Coffee in taste. Dry palate.
