330 ml bottle. Rated @ 27.5.2011.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Black it is! Upon the black body rests a small, light brown head, at least for a couple of minutes. The remnants that are left at the rim lace the glass pretty well. Burnt notes in the aroma, along with coffee, caramel and a pronounced and delightful element of elderberries. Initial light sweetness and light bitterness, with a long-lasting medium bitter finish. Flavours are mainly brown sugar, elderberries and coffee, while the burnt aroma gives rise to a lighter roasted flavour. Medium body, oily texture, very soft carbonation.
[33 cl bottle, from SuperBrugsen Søholm, Brønshøj, Copenhagen]

50cL bottle. Pours a dark brown caramel with a tan head. Aroma is hoppy with hints of roasted chocolate. Taste has a significant hop background with hints of caramelized malts and roasted chocolate in the foreground. Finish is roasted and hoppy. The bitter background reminds me of a pale ale or IPA. A good beer, but not mind-blowing.
