Frallan (24) - Stockholm, - SEP 22, 2012
Heavy aroma - spread across the room when the bottle is opened. Dark chocolate coloured with a lace after a couple of seconds. Tastes like a porter to my surprise with some burnt sugar. Leaves a slightly burnt aftertaste.

(Bottle). Soft aromas of chocolate, cocoa and roasted malt. The taste is soft with flavors of chocolate, coffee with milk, and roasted malt. The aftertaste has a slightly fruity tone and tangy bitterness that takes over the taste too much, it’s sad and it lowers the score slightly.

OleR (4247) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAR 19, 2013
0.5 L bottle, kindly shared by KnutAlbert. A brown layer of bubbles, covering an unclear dark brown body. Chocolate malts, dark dried fruits and toasted grainy malts in the aroma. Cocoa/chocolate is dominating the flavor as well. Some fine fruit tones in a addition, and hint of sour/ashy and bready tones. Light sweet and well-bodied. Thick mouthfeel. Fruity acidic endnotes. A pretty good one.

Oklar mörk brun-cola färgad med typ inget skum. Doft: Kaffe, alkohol, tång, gräs, torkade frukter, bränt socker. Smak: Kakao, kaffe, barr, citrus, blom äng, rostat korn, trä. Smaken är bättre sist jag öppnade en flaska, önskar dock att den vore kraftigare.

Good as hell! very tasty and very smell. The aftertaste is like a punch in the stomach. Yes absolutely wonderful it is, but it made ​​a great deal to be perfect. Cloudy host to test if you manage to come across a bottle. This is my 200 beer i rate here at Rate Beer.
