May 10, 2006 Bottle. Pitch black beer with a light dark head. The aroma is roasted coffee and the flavour is oaty, slightly smoked, bitter and roasted. Overall a nice beer.

Aug 18, 2005 Bottle. very dark with some ruby. Slim tan head soon gone. Aroma is chocolate. Thin bodied. Chocolate and roast malt taste. Reasonable, I suppose.

Jan 31, 2004 A lot darker than expected. Poor head retention. Tasted like a schwarzbier to me - flavour and aroma are dominated by chocolate malt. Nothing else is really apparent. No off flavours, but it has a thin body and lack of malt, but the dark malt character compensates in a way.

Aug 3, 2003 A good dark beer with a nice clean head. The nose is a subtle chocolate with a slight burnt note. The body is quite thin but the flavour, like a schwarzbier, is more of the malt bitterness rather than hop presence.
