As one of the tasters in a flight.Fairly sure I’ve had this before, but apparently not rated it.Very dark brown to black color, very small tan head. Chocolate, sweet scent. Chocolate, nutty, sry, alcohol taste. Bitter, chocolate aftertaste. Medium full mouthfeel, medium bitterness.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 7 Oct 2016) Black colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of coffee, hazelnuts and chocolate. Malty, roasted taste with chocolate, hazelnuts, Nutella, coffee and a balanced cacao bitterness. More than medium body, with a certain sweetness. Well made and tasty, with lots of hazelnuts and chocolate. Nice one.

Deep brown color with a off white head. Good intensity in the aroma. Medium to full body and fine smooth carbonation level. Off course a bit sweet, but not cloying in any way. Very balanced. Oily texture. Really nutty flavor. A solid and nice evening sipper!
