3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
A black beer with a brown shine when held against a light soiurce, underneath a nice brown head. The aroma is strong with notes of cappuchino, but notes of black coffee and vanilla mixes in. The flavor is primarily of black coffee and cappuchino, with a light roasted note, over a thin body. Somewhat boring - had expected more.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma is dense dark malty, chocolate and coffee. Liqourice, dark roasted malt, chocolate and dense herbal coffee. Smooth and slight sweet yet roasted finish. Bitter and lasting coffeish finish.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
(Bottle 100 cl) Completely black and opaque with a creamy, beige head leaving some laces. The aroma is of pure ash. Rather soft mouthfeel. Medium body with lightly sweet malt and very burned notes - this is very ashy, a feature I don’t really appreciate in my beer. Discreet, bitter finish. Thanks to presario for this. 020606

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Very dark brown colour. Quite coffeeish aroma, with slight maltiness. Very coffeeish flavour. Walks the line between balanced and unbalanced, but ultimately retains its civility despite fairly heavy hand on the espresso machine. Despite this, it’s still not something I’d recommend to non-coffee fans.

Very dark brown beer. Mild malt and mild coffee on the nose. Light palate, fairly dry. Dark malt but very mild, almost apologetic. Very light coffee, barely there. Mild minerals. Wishy washy stout.
