3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark ruby tinted brown. Big khaki head that lasts a long time. Plenty of lacing left behind. Huge smoked malt aroma. Some pepper and dark dried fruits. Big smoke flavor. A nice crisp dryness with a huge malt sweetness. Strange concoction, but very nice sipper.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
50 cl bottle @ Gastropub Nordic. BBE 21.10.2010, brewed 21.12.08. Rated on 15.01.2011
Aroma has some smoke, hints of tar and ripe fruits. Flavour is smoky and somewhat malty with some wood and ash from campfire. Something isn’t correct here, I wonder if the bottle was just too old?
1.3 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 6/20
Deep brownish and hazy colour. A beige head. Smokey and the bandit to me. Heavy smoked nose. Really massive flavour, but the heavy smoked barley kills everything. And also lots of alcohol. Not very recomendable in my oppinion. But I know that there are others out there who likes it :-)
[Bottle from Vinmonopolet]
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours a nice dark color with some delightful flavors. Aroma is not too shabby either.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap @ Radio Maria. Medium copper with a thin tan head. Aroma is of slightly smoky leather and faint band-aid. Palate is heavily phenolic, with heaps of band-aid flavour overlying a caramel sweetness and smokiness. Finish is very mouth-drying, not quite astringent, but getting there, with lots of leather and old dusty wood from a burnt barn. Not my favourite from these guys.
4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Aroma of caramel, chocolate, coffee, licorice, raisin, smoke and vanilla very complex beer. I feel that I almost can find a new taste in it each time I drink this one. Alcoholish finish, together with coffee and licorice.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured on draft into a Belgian style drinking glass. Appearance is dark brown with a grey/purple colored head of foam. Aroma is all bacon and barbeque sauce and its quite daunting to know that you’re about to drink a glass of it. Smokiness is something I would typically prefer in a smaller quantity. Taste is just like I imagined it would be. Bacon really shines here. Wish I would have just gotten a sample.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
0.5l bottle. No head as it pours, but a minimal khaki one soon materializes. Opaque dark brownish-red color. Very big body, dry carbonation. Kind of a strong alcohol taste, with the bitter. Dark fruit aromas. Little hop. Interesting, but difficult to drink.

Black with an off white head - aroma of smoked malts - Taste is smoked malt with some ash as well - long smokey aftertaste
