Nnudd (69) - Helsinge, - MAY 14, 2009
Bottle.Dark brown with a small light brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, a hint of coffee. Medium body. Taste is sweeet and and reminds me of a danish hvidtøl - not much stout here.

Bottle...much too sweet for me...or not enough other flavours. Nice price though...0,50 euro.

txspartan (878) - Wilrijk, BELGIUM - MAR 7, 2013
Grainy and somewhat metallic aroma. Light brown head disappears quickly. Syrup and metal flavour. Almost like drinking a fizzy burnt caramel.

olio (4080) - Tampere, FINLAND - MAR 4, 2013
33 cl bottle.
Originally rated on 20100722.
Pours dark brown color with a large off-white head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malts and sourish fruits. Flavor of sour fruits, cocoa, roasted malts and some cocoa. Too thin-bodied and the sourness doesn’t quite fit here.

tderoeck (3000) - Gent, BELGIUM - FEB 19, 2013
11/II/13 - 25cl bottle from Willems (Grobbendonk) @ home - BB:n/a (2013-159)

Clear dark brown beer, small aery beige head with fine bubbles, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: grassy hops, surprisingly enough, this smells like a pilsener, grains, a bit sweet, hay, stable (which is pretty fitting given the name). MF: ok carbon, light body. Taste: sweet and sugary start, more sugar, caramel, hay, bitter hops, grains, more sugar still. Aftertaste: little bitter, lots of sugar, caramel, bit grassy, hay, ersatz chocolate. Man this is really bad stuff.

laiti (3925) - Tampere, FINLAND - JAN 4, 2013
33 cl bottle @ hotel room, Bruges. Rated on 16.07.2010
Aroma has oat, some sweetish chocolate and also some harsh notes. Flavour is sweet and feels a bit artficial. It has semi‐dark chocolate, some licorice and cocoa. Nothing much.

Leighton (6955) - London, ENGLAND - APR 19, 2012
Bottle at home in London. Pours red-brown with a quickly fading, red-beige foam head. Sweet chocolate snout, some cocoa candies. Sickly sweet flavor, some dark bread, sugary artificial chocolate syrup. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sickly sweet finish, all dark sugar and artificial chocolate, a bit of well-done meat. I’m just really not sure there’s a good ’Sweet Stout’ out there. Please, someone, somewhere, make a decent Sweet Stout.

blafa (510) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - MAR 11, 2012
Bottle at Dahlbergs. Helsingborg, March 2012.
Thanks to PeaceRich for sharing these. Frankly one of the worst stout I’ve ever tasted. Aromas of skunky malts, wet hay and grains. Alcoholic taste with a small note of something toasted and soy.

DutchDrebus (2274) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - SEP 13, 2011
Very black, some redness. Beautiful brown head. No smell at all. Tastes like a sugar bomb, pure sugarness. Hardly any carbo, sugar body. Did i mention sugar yet?

Benzai (4344) - Oirschot, NETHERLANDS - AUG 16, 2011
Bottle @ home shared with DutchDrebus. Dark brown color, with a deep dark red glow coming through. Smell nothing. Taste sweet, sugar. Weird stout, don’t like it. Fizzy carbo, medium body.
