33cl bottle. Dark mahogany pour with a thin tan head that disappears in a few seconds. Aroma notes of smoked roasted malts, some dark fruit. The taste follows the same notes, with additional notes of dark chocolate, cocoa nibs, cognac. Full body, low to no carbonation and a bitter and kind of alcoholic finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of (collab with) To Øl Blommer I Madeira on 10 Nov 2016 at 21:02 - Score: 7

(Thx!) 330 ml. bottle sampled @ Billie’s Bier Kafetaria. Bottle says JAN 2015. Black only a small ring of tanned bubbles on the side. Nose is sweet fruity umami, quite syrupy with thick madeira, red vinous fortified wine jam, thick barrel,… Taste is quite interesting, strongly boozy, faint varnish, Madeira is massive, thick fortified wine syrup, strongly vinous, warming, fruity, umami prunes & plums, low Coca-Cola, sugar,… Carbonation is barely there adding to the very sweet fortified wine & malt syrup qualities,… Quite interesting, this is a beer that admire more than I fully love it. Barrel is a bit too heavy here, taking the beer over with little in the way of carbonation,… As I said, interesting & admirable experiment but a bit flawed.

Many thanks to djoeye for sharing a 330ml bottle of this one. The oily pour reveals a pitch black body. Just a small ring of bubble to the rim. No lacing. Inviting aromas of dark grapes, plums and caramel malts. Dried fruity flavours supported by wood, caramel and chocolate malts. A solid malt--fruity ending, slightly roasted and warming down the throat. Excellent slow beer (Session with Finn and djoeye, Tromsø 07.9.2016).

Bottle shared at a tasting at troubles’s place. Black with a bit of tan foam. Aroma is quite alcoholic, vinous, with lots of dark fruits, wood, some chocolate, and an ashy note. Flavor is quite dry, vinous, slightly tart, with dark fruits and wood. Quite full-bodied and rounded. Very nice, but maybe a bit too vinous.
