Bottle 243 thanks to Jack the Sipper. It pours jet black with tiny tan head. The nose is rich, sweet, chewy, lots of chocolate, vanilla, cookie dough, Riesen chocolate chew, marshmallow, prune, date and fortified wine. The taste is rich, very sweet upfront, chocolate gateaux, rocky road, Christmas pudding, warming alcohol, cheap plain chocolate, chewy malt, liqueur, dried fruits and light vinous notes with a lingering sweet finish. Full body, fine carbonation and oily mouth-feel. Crazy sweeeeeeet. Loads of chocolate going on. Pretty much a liqueur. OK in small doses.

Bottle at Mikkeller Viktoriagade. Opaque black liquid with medium tan head. Aroma of dried fruit, licorice, caramel, raw sugar, booze and port wine. Taste is medium sweet and light to medium bitter with notes of licorice, wood, booze, caramel and raw sugar. Full bodied with low carbonation and extremely sticky mouthfeel. Great but a real mouthful.

Mikkeller Vik. Three Floyds tap takeover. Bottle share with loadsa Ratebeerians. Opaque black brown beer, small pale tan head. Palate is surprisingly light and airy. No heat here! Smooth sweet dark malts, no roast or bitterness. Nice orangey sweet tang from the.Moscatel. Very light spice. Light smooth finish. Notbthe stunner that is the Port Barrel but another fine easy drinking BA Dark Lord!

26.02.2014, 0,65l bottle (2013) sampled @ MAD Beer Brewing release @ Mielcke & Hurtigkarl:
No head, just some bubbles. Aroma is like putting the nose in a bag of dried red chillies. There is just an insane amount of red chillies in this one, very grassy chili-like, dark malts, spices, dark sugar, grass. Taste is slightly sweet spiced, dark sugar, dark malts, chili, grass, oak, vanilla, chocolate. Medium bitterness, nice not too powerful chili touch compared to the aroma. Nice one.
14.05.2016, tap (as Dark Lord Dwarven Power Bottom) @ CBC
8-3-8-4-15=3,8
No head. Aroma is slightly sweet boozy, dark sugar, mild bourbon, oak, dark malts, burnt caramel, minerals, bark, toast, vanilla. Taste is sweet, dark sugar, mild bourbon, vanilla, grass, burnt caramel, oak, minerals, toffee, licorice, dark sour fruits, more dark sugar. Medium bitterness, dry and syrupy mouthfeel. Nice.
