750ml bottle. Opaque black with very small, brown, lasting, lacing head. Dark malty aroma with notes of roasted malt, dark chocolate, milk chocolate, coffee, additional overtones of floor or shoe polish and leather. Taste is similar, a constant battle between the heavy, sweet side, that is in trouble to establish itself, and the at last preponderant lighter, dry one.

From bottle (too cold!) @ Borefts ’12. Black color, no head. Aroma’s: chocolate, sweet, earth/funky, also roast retronasal. Flavor is medium sweet, funk, chocolate. Strong alcohol feel, burning (like there was chili in it). Medium body. Finishes slightly dry, wood, medium bitter.

Sample at SBWF 2012. Dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of coffee, dark chocolate and roasted malt. Also licorice and some spices. I liked this, complex beer with a lot of flavours. The body was full. A tasty collaboration.

On tap at BBF’12. Black colour, thin beige head. Aroma of pure chocolate, smooth coffee, hard roasted malts, some green peppers. Flavour is superb coffee, moccha, lots of great chocolate, hard roasted malts, firm burning pepper note that suits the beer really well, more chocolate, bitter finish. Fullbodied, soft mouthfeel. Great stuff.

Bottle at Borefts. Dark mahogany pour with a thin tan head. Coffee chocolate aroma which was also surprisingly sweet. Big roasted malty taste with a bitter liquorice palate. A big beer packed full of flavours. Very special. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
