On tap at Örebro Öl & Whisky Festival. Pitch black color. Very nice vinous aroma of dried fruits, raisins, chocolate, and almonds. Flavour is nicely fruity (for an imperial stout) and vinous with lots of raisins, chocolate and almonds in harmony. Complex and enjoyable. Fullbodied.

Pitch black, small brown head. Coffeish, sticky glueish aroma. Very sweet, madeira-like ... glue, alcohol, molasses. Need ageing, now too sweet and raw.

Draft. A pitch black beer with a brown head. The aroma is very powerful and at first dominated by wood and alcohol, and peat, but also with medium notes of roasted malt - a bit too much. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of prunes, alcohol, wood, thick soy sauce, and peat, leading to a dry, alcoholic, and roasted finish.

Draught@SBWF2009. Pitch black colour, small brown head. Aroma is liquorice, strong maltyness, mild roasted notes, coffee and some mild nuttyness as well. Flavour is roasted malts, liquorice, sweet salted liquorice and also some wooden and nutty notes. Very nice. Alcohol is high, but only gives a mild burn in the finish.
