UPDATED: NOV 20, 2022 Flaska från share, backlog. Riktig gammelflaska, 50 cl med bäst före 2012. Föga förvånande passerat sin peak, mer kul än gott. Smakerna från grundölet märks fortfarande något, med snygga toffeetoner. Annars är det metalliskt, uttunnat och dåliga rester av kaffe.

UPDATED: JUN 26, 2020 It pours dark brown with a brown head. Head retention is moderate. It has a strong coffee aroma with a little bit of roast and nuts. There is a very low sweet hop aroma of which the smell cannot be placed. The flavors have coffee and chocolate. It has a spicy note to it. There is a bit of sweetness to it in the finish. There are also some low roasted notes. It has a medium full body. There is a slight creamy texture to it. Overall, the coffee, sweetness, and spice makes for a nice combination.

UPDATED: AUG 31, 2018 Aroma of sweet malts, sweet hops upfront, mild hops at the end, very light coffee, bottle.

Bottle. Opaque black with coffee coffee-like brown head. The aroma has lots of coffee, creamy, some herbs, wood, earthy, dark chocolate and soy sauce. The flavor is bitter with lots of coffee, piney, wood, dark chocolate, some alcohol, soy sauce, umami, citrus. Smooth and creamy, full-bodied. Excellent.

Bottle, thanks rayaron. Opaque black with a beige head. Aroma of coffee, piney and earthy hops, soy sauce. Bitter-sweet, coffee, dark chocolate, fudge, piney and green hops, a bit of molasses and dark fruits. Full bodied, oily, smooth. Great, probably the best Black IPA I tried so far.

On tap at Mikkeller & Friends. Pours black. Chocolate, strong pine and herbal stuff, grapefruit, toast, strong roast, good coffee hit. Good body. Tasty if a little overpowering.

OMBF 2017. Mokry beton (to od jakiejś kawy), zapach wpada nawet w herbaciany lub trochę w brown ale, mało słonecznika jak na CDA, bardzo ładna i trwała piana+lacing, trochę jakby brakuje ciała (wrażenie wodnistości). Kolor ciemnobrązowy, a nie czarny.

330 ml. bottle bb 10/10/2026. Jet black body has a lasting film of spongy foam. Aroma of earthy cocoa, orange, dank green herb, char and caramel. Tastes of caramel, orange, dark chocolate, dark roast coffee, oats and piquant green herb. Medium-plus body has low-medium fizz and an easy drinking balance.

UPDATED: JUL 22, 2018 En copa, cerveza negra con una fina capa de espuma tostada y carbonatación media/alta. Aroma muy fresco muy lupulado, que ya deja entrever su amargor. Aromas a malta tostada casi quemada, resina, pino, hierbas, y al final algo cafetero. En boca, cerveza ligera, bastante sedosa para ser una IPA, y un poco oleosa. Sabores principalmente a malta, café, lúpulo por todos los lados, y resina. Una Black IPA realmente interesante.

Bottle. Pours pitch black with a two fingers thick compact and creamy tan head. Roasted malts aroma with dark chocolate and some black pepper notes (this was a quite old bottle). Taste is rich of roasted coffee beans and bitter dark chocolate. The roasted aftertaste is long and powerfull. Full bodied, creamy texture, very pleasing mouthfeel. Between a black IPA and a stout. One of the best Mikkeller I had.
