Bottle at home. Aroma of roasted malt, lots of coffee, mocha, espresso, dark chocolate, fruity notes, hint of liquorice, fruity hops. Flavour is light sweet and medium bitter. Body is medium. Delicious coffee-heavy Black IPA, but you gotta be a coffee fiend to appreciate this one.

Week van het Nederlandse Bier 2015. Dikke stroperige koffie met brandnetel bitter hopje aan het eind. Niet makkelijk, twee lekkere smaken die elkaar te lijf gaan en ontkrachten. Backlog from 2015/05/28.

Semi-opaque dark pour with a velvety tan-coloured head. Smells of coffee and roasted malts, and of piney hops. There’s a lot of coffee present in the taste, combined with a fresh hop bitterness (citrus and pine) and dark chocolate.

The beer is roasty smooth. Nice coffee and a smooth body. Not too smooth, but a bit rough. Intense roast, nice roasted coffee with hints of milk-chocolate. Roasty-bitter aftertaste, nice intense floral fresh. Easy to drink.
