Tranquillity (1014), Espoo, Finland May 9, 2008 Darught @ Gallow’s Bird, Esbo. Malty aroma with burned flavours and cookies, chocolate and even vanilla. Complex. Taste surprisingly full for its strength. Very chocolatey, long malty finish. Balanced.
anders37 (2441), Malmö, Sweden Jul 9, 2008 Bottle. Pours an almost black color with a longlasting tan head. Roasted malty chocolate aroma with some hoppy hints. Roasted malty chocolate flavor. Long dry hoppy bitter chocolate and coffee finish. Doggythedog (797), Split, Croatia Jul 7, 2008 RBESG08 grand tasting. Ahh the Johnny Cash of beer. That line made me laugh. Poured a very murky dark red colour with a small tan head. Perfumey malty nose, notes of.. american? hops. Taste is dominated by aroma hops that show up in front of a lightly roasty malty body. Again, quite light for a IS but quite tasty. ekstedt (1711), Göteborg, Sweden Jul 6, 2008 Sampled at the RSBEG08 grand tasting. Dark murky brown with medium beige head. Strong but gentle roasted malt aroma with spicy/herbal hops. Medium bodied and soft mouthfeel. Good balance, but not exciting in any way. Magic_dave6 (3476), Glasgow, Scotland Jul 5, 2008 Bottle at the RBESG08 Grand tasting. Alround rating: Nose is very hoppy and bitter with roast, taste is similar and its just soo unbalanced. cgarvieuk (2120), Edinburgh, Scotland Jul 5, 2008 Deep brown .. rich malty fruity nose ... roast malts ...bit thin... little chocolate ... woody and earthy
