330 ml bottle. Pleasant malty aroma. Good beige head disappeared quite fast. Malty flavour with hints of burnt caramel and a little chocolate. Light hops flavour with low bitterness. Smooth mouthfeel and an easy finish.

Aug 10, 2008 12oz bottle: As name implies, near black in color. Frothy off-white head. Aroma of sweet roasted malt with a hint of chocolate and caramel. Deep roasted flavor with a slight hint of cocoa. Finishes a little crisp. Very well balanced. One of my favorite S.A. offerings.

Aug 10, 2008 Bottle. Pours a deep dark chocolate brown. Nose heavy on chocolate, malts, and dark molassas. Same flavors on the palate. Im sure there’s some hops in there somewhere, but they’re not as omnipresent like in other BBC brews. I like this beer alot.
