Dark ruby red colour, creamy tan head. Aroma of dark chocolate, liquorice, bay leave and dark rye bread (Fries roggebrood). Hints of candied citrus peel. Fruity hops. Flavour of malts, coffee, toffee, milk chocolate, burnt malt bitterness, slight smokyness. Slightly astringent, leaves a dry mouth feel. Rather long finish with bitter burnt malt tones and hops. Pleasant. (From 33cL bottle)

Thick-set, yellow-beige head, dwindling over deep ruby-brown beer. Burnt, roasted nose, with fruity hints; some salty, seafood-like whiffs as well. Sharp burnt flavours, with sweetness underneath, that just fails to get through all the roasted power. Bit of coaldust and peppery. Warming up, the mounting alcoholwarming lends it more balance, but not quite enough to save the day. Very well-bodied, slick, but not too pappery MF. Has its merits, but would have hugely benefitted, IMO, with a bit less burnt emphasis.

Bottled from Mitra. Dark color, medium lasting brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, some rye, nice toffee, mocha, dry nuts. Thick creamy texture. Good bitter taste, nicely balanced with roasted grains and smooth sweet caramel. Slight sweet palate. I like this brew, gonna get a whole crate of it at my local Mitra!
