3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/2050 cl bottle @ home. Rated on 24.09.2009
Aroma has licorice, well roasted malt and coffee notes. Flavour has pleasant roastiness, licorice and some dark chocolate. Finishes with ash, coffee notes and hints of cocoa. Some may find the malt here way too roasted, but I seem to enjoy even this level of roastiness. Palate could be more rich though.

Bottled. First of all, this beer is awesome! I have had already several bottles in the last months. The aroma is dark chocolate and coffee. Exactly my style of a stout. Refreshing yet full aroma and flavor. Nicely balanced stout!

2.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 16/20
This a really old ale, well done, smells like dark chocolate with medium body, nice head, a little watery, taste is dark "dry" chocolate, good to start in the topic of intense beer to identify dark chocolate notes in complex beer and I love full british bottles so generous ml wise, well balanced but no surprises

Aromas of burnt toast and toffee develop with barnyard and a bit of hay. Deep ruby coloured with a toast coloured head. Light fizzy and medium-full bodied. toast aromas linger on the palate. Light bit slick texture with an average mild finish.

Dobry Stout. Czarny jak Guinness, Piana brązowo-beżowa, średniej wielkości ale utrzymuje się sporo czasu na powierzchni. Smak Karmelowo-czekoladowy, kawowych nut nie wyczułem. Gorycz tylko na finiszu. W smaku słodkawo-palone. Pijalne piwo.
