On tap at the brewpub. As RBNAG-11. First made for the RBNAG 2011 pubcrawl. A black one, with a dense, light tan head. Lots of coffee on the nose, with some vanilla. Roasted. Quite dry on the palate, yet with residual sweetness. Nice co2 level. Lots of flavor, especially coffee. Coffee-bitter in the finish, with lots of coffee flavor. A really worthy beer for the occasion. 111014

On tap at Schouskjelleren. Black with a creamy, fingerthick, brown head. Inviting aroma of chocolate and dark frouits. Plenty of roasted notes on the nose and in the mouth. More chocolate, but also coffee, vanilla and wood. Full bodied. Smooth, although it starts a bit prickling on the tongue. Splendid beer!

From tap @Schouskjelleren, Oslo. An opaque dark brown pour, a shade away from black. Stable, light choco brown cream head. Pleasant choco/cocoa aroma. Vanilla tones and a scent of mild coffee ground. Coffee-accented soft dark malt flavor. Bitter-sweet, with vanilla and subtle ash tones. Creamy texture, supersmooth in the mouth. Full. Lingering coffee ending. A fully balanced and well-crafted beer, more than worthy for the RBNAG 11 gathering
