15.05.2017, tap @ Rbabarrab:
Nice brown creamy longlasting head. Aroma is sweet, dark sugar, roasted grain, rich coffee, chocolate, dark malts, cocoa, caramel, toast, vanilla, marshmallows, toffee, lactose. Taste is slightly dry mineraly, dark malts, toast, roasted grain, burnt coffee, minerals, cocoa, ashes, alcohol, bark, hay, bitter chocolate, dusty vanilla, oak. Medium bitterness, dry roasted mouthfeel. Nice. Could have been pretty fantastic if the taste would add up to the lovely aroma...

330 ml bottle from Biervana, Munich, bb 31/01/22.
Pitch black, oily body, with a medium, dense, lacing, dark coffee-colored head.
Amazing, smooth aroma of espresso, coffee beans, cocoa powder, nuts, toffee, vanilla, subtle dark fruits.
Tastes quite similar, a bit less rich, with more vanilla and some liquorice.
Full, creamy mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes smooth, roasty, warm, moderate sweet, with coffee, dark chocolate, liquorice, some cocoa beans, some vanilla.
Very tasty! Wonderful, smooth, rich nose, with dense coffee and sweet notes. Taste is a bit more on the sweet side, while still very well balanced, with enough roasty notes. Alcohol is well hidden, only providing some comfortable warmth. Beautiful stuff!
