Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown close to black color with a finger's worth of off-white frothy head which dissipated gently to leave some light lace
Aroma: wood shavings, sweet leather, black anise, sweet earthy character, peat, subtle smoke and a kiss of dark fruits, cocoa nibs far down in there
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to an assortment of different kinds of sweetnesses and adds in a touch of sherry-like dryness; finishes sweet earthy and dry with a combination of cocoa nibs and leather tones
Texture: medium bodied; slightly sessionable; some smoothness with expected dryness, good carb level
Overall: works for me as an Old ale. I would return to this.

Draft. Rich amber beer with a cream head. Malt and caramel aroma with light smoke. Caramel and light fruity flavor. Medium-plus bodied. Caramel and light fruitiness linger.

Can from Just In Beer, Groningen. Lovely toasted caramel malt aroma with toffee, milk chocolate, notes of dried fruits, soft fudge and liquorice root. Medium sweet flavour, lightly bitter. Body is medium. Very drinkable and easy Old, the malts really shine here.

member of 1001 beers list unexpected until I brought home. Dark cola pour and minimal head. Nose is ripe fruits and leather. Tastes of old leather booth, figs, flat cola, molasses and chocolate. Smooth creamy palate.

Dark chestnut towards black, small head. Raisin and smoked wood aroma. Malty body with raisin, chocolate and slightly smoked notes. Distinct but balanced bitterness.

Can from Systembolaget. Deep, smokey Malts that has more porter vibes than old ale - certainly if English. Quite rough even though it is clearly well made and mature.

Can from SB. Dark brown with beige had. Nutty, slightly roasted, some dried fruit, touch of coffee and dark chocolate. Easy drinking.
