0.25 l bottle from 'SpeciaalBierPakket.nl', 2019 vintage. Pitch black with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Intensely sweetish-malty, gently roasty, slightly fruity and a bit boozy aroma of dark chocolate, honey, vanilla, bourbon, milk coffee and caramel. Fairly sweet, malty, quite roasty, slightly fruity taste of praline, honey, bourbon, vanilla, caramel and milk coffee, followed by a medium long, gently roasty-bitter, minimally boozy finish. Medium to full body, silky smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. A delicious treat, the honey seems to be the ingredient that makes the difference. There's a lot of stuff which is at least as outspoken or aromatic, but the balance is simply incredibly. Lovely beer!

Bottle, RBESG 2007 in Glasgow, Grand Tasting. Pitch black colour, creamy brown head. Very nice aroma of chocolate and roasted malts, hints of oak. Intensely rich and complex flavour: oaky, vinous, roasty, chocolate, liquorice. An excellent beer, but so is the "ordinary" Stormaktsporter.
