Black colour. Aroma is roasted malts. Body is light, with some roasted malt and coffee flavour.

Black in color with an off-white head. Roasted malt with a hint of toast and coffee. Really quite bland and somewhat watery. A mild acidity to it, too. The flavor is just bland and roasty. Some coffee and perhaps cocoa powder. Very little sweetness. Very dry and somewhat acidic. A little bit bitter, too.

Draught@Bishops Arms Vasagatan, Stockholm (old backlog). Quite much pitch black colour with a slightly off-white head (quite Guinness like looks actually). Aroma is smooth roasted malts, some mild liquorice, ashes and mild caramel. Flavour is roasted malts, liquorice, ashes, some caramel and mild dry wooden notes.

Tap (served in a tall fine glass). Almost black body, with a nice lasting beige creamy head. Light sweet roasted malty aroma. Well balanced flavour. Dry, light sweet. Coffee and hints of red berries. Not too heavy, easy drinking, with a relatively low ABV. (Glenfiddich Warehouse, Stockholm, 04.07.2011)

Restaurant Pelikan: Pours a black body with a beige head. Aroma is roasted malt and bitter chocolate. Taste is unfortunately a step down from the aroma. It is mostly weak chocolate and weak roast. The body is too thin, as oft is the case for the dry stout. Quite mediocre.

From tap at Paddys. Pours hazy dark brown to black with a small, lacing tan head. Aroma is roasted mal malty. Caramelish to chocolate. Dense dark malty and roasted. Bitter, dry and roasted. Chocolate and bitter. Ends roasted and dark malty. 

Draught. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Black colour. Moderate malty and moderate hoppy aroma. moderate bitter very dry roasted flavor. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily palate.

On tap at Sue Ellen, Stockholm. Almost black with a small tan head. Aroma and taste of light roasted malt, some coffee and chocolate. Light and easy to drink. A bit on the boring side.

Medium brown head. Opaque black body, at least in here. Soft roasty chocolatey aroma with mealy notes. Dry-sweet roasty burnt taste with mealy chocolatey notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, mealy mouthfeel. Dry roasty chocolate and licorice aftertaste with mealy notes. Not really all that much flavour. (0.4l draft at Bishops Arms, Järntorget, Göteborg.)

On at Loka brun. Pours pitch black wirh a small light brown head. Smells sweet bread malty. Tastes bread malty, abit watery with a similar finish. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
