Mid light creamy , beige look. 4- Nose: good , thick roast , dark chocolate , bitterness of dark malts , espresso with shot of vodka. 7+ Flavor/Palate : Superb roast qualities. Smoky ,roasty , toasted barley blend with mocha and tar. All ingredients and flavour elements well put together. Very smooth with soul of Baltic Porter in it. Delicious Old Europe.
Quevillon (1518), Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada Jun 6, 2009 Bu au Mondial 2009, le 4 juin (#11). Brunée torifiée, peu de collet. Arome de réglisse malté avec un peu d’alcool. Goût de et de petits fruits, mocha malté avec une finission sec. Peut-être pas le bon style mais assé savoureuse! zapprentice (309), East Setauket, New York, USA May 26, 2009 Aroma is interesting, chocolates, roasted coffee. Flavor does not uphold those notes, bland watery finish. Not impressed. LilBeerDoctor (1480), East Setauket, New York, USA May 25, 2009 Bottle. Pours black with a small ring of tan head. Aroma of sweet roasted malt, light roasted coffee, and sweet malt. Flavor is sweet malt with off notes. Vegetal notes abound. Not a fan of this one...not sure what went wrong here.
7/4/6/3/12 (3.2/5) fredandboboflo (1395), East Setauket, New York, USA May 25, 2009 Bottle. Aroma quite roasty with bitter chocolate, vanilla, and a few too many prunes and such. Flavor brings on some fairly weak coffee with roasted edges, again too many prunes. It’s ok, no idea how fresh this is, though I’d bet not fresh enough. DerWeg (748), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 23, 2009 Very compact and clean package displaying hints of sour chocolate, nuts, and toffee, some dry fruits, brown shuggah, hint of smoke & lingering touch of hops. Blackish brown pour, brown highlights and tan head. Unexpectedly crisp, it slowly insinuates - the finish becomes rather long, the aroma fairly complete and it has a lot to offer with a very different ’classy’ Euro approach compared to the brazen west-coasties. Try one!! kask (15), Toender, Denmark May 19, 2009 Black color, (of course). Light brown head, wich is rather small.
Aroma has notes of dark chocolate and coffe.
Taste offers notes af dark Chocolate, coffe, roasted bread, and a little bit of smoked barley. it is a bit acidic. Body is medium. Carbonation is soft.
It is an quite ordinery stout, without eny surprises.
odgaard (249), Skyum, Thisted, Denmark May 8, 2009 Black with a small disappearing brown head. Aroma: Roasted malt, liquorice, coffee, cocoa. some fruit too. Taste: very smooth. Cocoa, coffee, roasted malt, a hint of smoke, fruit, raisin, plum. Very good mouthfell. Great brew. I love this brewery.
