A pitch black beer with a chocolate brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of roasted bread and chocolate. The flavor is lovely: sweet malty with loads of roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Extremely black with a a small brownish head. Very dry with a characteristic burned malt. A bitterness more likely to come from the malt than from the hops.

<i>Bottled.</i> Black with beige solid, lasting head. Licorice aroma. Dry and medium bodied. Really tarry with chewy malts and a long bitter finish. Well balanced.
