0.33 l can from 'Sterk Avondverkoop', best before December 2027. Pitch black with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, light brown head. Sweetish-malty, moderately roasty and a bit spicy aroma of nougat, mocca, hazelnut, cinnamon and a touch of licorice. Fairly sweet, malty, moderately roasty and slightly spicy taste of nougat, mocca, cinnamon, coffee, some vanilla and hints of bourbon, followed by a medium long, moderately roasty-bitter, slightly earthy and quite spicy finish. Medium to full body, creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very pleasant, really well-balanced, not too sweet or boozy or anything, overall pretty good!

Can from Beerdome @ home. Black colour with a small light brown head. Smells roasty, vanilla, sweet, loads of dark chocolate. Tastes roasty, sweet, vanilla, cinnamon, marshmallow, chocolate, kaneelstok, whipped cream. It would be even better without the cinnamon taste, but that fades quickly and what lasts is a lovely vanilla and chocolate taste. Full body, soft carbo.

(330ml can from boxbeers.dk) Pours pitch black with a big frothy head of latte coloured foam. Notes of mid-sweet dark malt, ashy roast, chocolate, wood, lightly charred, touch of cinnamon, soft bourbon/vanilla hints, light liquorice too, a little bit of spirit heat, fairly dry from mid-sip on, dusty, cinnamon helping the drydown, cacao and spice plus wood aftertaste. A bit thin for style, edging to medium body, soft carbonation, a little booze. Quite nice, well-spiced, appreciate the overall dryness from a "dessert edition". Feels a bit too light in the moth though.

330 ml can. Pours black with full tan head. Aromas of nutty almost metallic chocolate, light cinnamon, and greasy roasted malts. Flavors of rich dry chocolate, dry roasted malts, and licorice with a bit of cinnamon and what seems to be coconut. Very dry - not sweet. Very nice!

330ml can. Jet black colour with small, thick, creamy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, beige to tan head. Sweet-ish, chocolately dark malty and spicy aroma, notes of dark chocolate, couverture, cinnamon, vanilla. Taste is sweet-ish, chocolately dark malty, spicy, notes of dark chocolate, chocolate sauce, cinnamon, vanilla; long lasting finish, viscous-oily texture, sticky palate. Superbly balanced, harmonious - excellent.

Can. Bearded Lady Dessert Edition paired with vanilla ice cream. A biscuity minty chocolate aroma. Full bodied but super zesty, lots of mint and spicy chocolate. The taste is full on but sharp with a herbal mint edge but great. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Canned, 330 ml, courtesy of Max. Shared with him and JFK10000. Dark brown with brown head. Coconut, chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla, bourbon. Sweet. Soft texture. Oily. Medium bodied, more thickness would be nice, slightly thin.
