Tap at the Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. Poured a deep mahogany with a round glass hugging tan head. The aroma is rich fruity and alcoholic. The flavour is medium bitter, oily and sweet. There is oak, alcohol, vanilla, liqourice , coffee and so much more. It’s so good that I will go as far as saying it’s Yummy!

4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Sampled at DLD 2013. Thanks to whomever opened this bottle. It poured a pitch black color with a tan head. The aroma was of roasted malt, lot of sweet notes, vanilla, coffee, sweet chocolate, oak, bourbon, dark fruits and some molasses. The taste was similar to the aroma with lots of sweetness, vanilla, oak, bourbon, roasted malt, coffee, sweet and dark chocolate, dark fruits and the molasses and sugary notes. This was awesome!
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
On tap at CBC, pours black with a small ring of tan head. Aroma brings out loads of vanilla beans, which dominate, moderate bourbon barrels, and lots of silky chocolate coming through. Flavour is super rich, bringing out very rich vanilla beans which have taken centre stage, along with subdued bourbon notes, and rich chocolate. Super complex, and although very sweet, not cloying in any way. Very rich and viscous. Might be considered a cloying mess to some, but I think it’s great. Excellent, but no where near the hype and rarity.
4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
Fat på CBC 2013. Fick min beskärda del av detta fantastiska öl. Smak och doft av fyllig och tydlig choklad och vanilj. Frisk, krämig och len. Ett fantastiskt välbalanserat öl mellan söt och beska. Bättre kan det nog inte bli, eller?
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draught at CBC 2013. Black with a tiny beige head. Cloying vanilla aroma with some whisky barrel notes, dark chocolate and coffee lurking behind. Full bodied, medium carbonation. Too sweet.
5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
Ett litet doft i smakprov mitt i tumultet på CBC 2013. Enorm chokladdoft, massiv kropp, stor sötma och vaniljsmak och mer choklad än jag någonsin smakat i ett öl. Som en chokladfondant där alkoholen lyfter smakerna och balanserar sötman. Ett perfekt dessertöl. Perfektion!
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Sampled @ CBC 2013. Opaque black color, full sized light brown head. Aroma is light to moderately malty, some cookies, roasted malts, sweetness, chocolate, lightly alcohol and loads of vanilla. Taste malts, lightly roasted malts, sweetness, sugar, lightly alcohol and again loads of vanilla. Light to medium body, lively carbonation, heavy alcoholic finish. Not my thing, too sweet, sugary and vanilla.
