500ml bottle, 28th Feb 2008. Pours pure black with a tan head. Aroma of medicinal herbs and toasted malt, with coffee and fruity hints. Great aroma of dark roasted malt, camphor, salty liquorice and bitter chocolate and coffee. Perfectly smooth as it goes down. Great stuff!
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Tasted 7/24/08. 500ml bottle. Dark brown and thick. Finger width of beige head. Toffee aromas with hints of cocoa, toast and mild anise. Solid nose! Rather full bodied with a sticky malt character. Coffee and bittersweet chocolate flavors. Cookies and dark berries. Sticky with a mild tart and bitter palate. Decent hop palate. Mild vanilla creaminess. Mild raisin note. Good rolling palate, but on the sweet side. Low effervescence and mild acidity. Almost a Baltic style, but hoppier. Totally tasty!

Draught, at Ølbaren, Copenhagen, Denmark
Strongggg, dam these danes (Ungstup & Sk8viking). Walked out of the place in a mess only to bup into Mabbsy and Calver in the lobby of the hotel on their way out to cause hell. I didn’t make for a very pretty next morning in the office at 7am. Dooh.

Very dark brown, nearly black coloured. Rather small off-white head. Strong burned malty coffee aroma. Taste is also strong, coffee caramel roasted. Ending is dry roasted, little fruity, nice beer.

Alcohol apparent in the nose, a little too much. Roasty and woody aromas. Bitter chocolate and coffee in the flavors, nicely melded, a touch of maple. Body holds together well, even a little slick and oily.

UPDATED: JUN 4, 2006 Pours black with a grey/brown head. Diminishing lacings. Medium sourness. Aromas of leather and roasted coffee. Nice CO2 level. A bit too light bodied. roasted coffee finish.
