On tap @ Kalfaret Brygghus, Bergen. Pours a darkly red brown, with a nice creamy head. Aroma has a nice fruitiness, with notes of plum and chocolate. Moderate to thin body, with medium carbonation. Flavour is lightly burned malts and coffee.

Sampled @ Kalfaret Brygghus. A clear dark reddish-ruby body with a lasting small creamy head that sticks around. Not extreme on the aroma, still, tones of sweet sticky caramel with some chocolate and something that reminds me of yeast. Not bad. Something near a mild creamy texture on this one, and flavor wise it's more like a light sweet porter. Some chocolate and caramel hints here. Ends with a thin sour hint in the finish and a sweet lasting aftertaste. Not a extreme stout in any way, but it's light drinkable, it will probably please the crowd, and I guess it's nice enough. 16.02.2012

On tap at Kalfaret. Has a very deep clear red-brown colour with a off-white to light beige small head. Lovely aromas of roasted malt and coffee, with some dark chocolate. More coffee and dark chocolate in the flavours with more clearly sweet malt. Nice roasted tones in the end. A oily and silky mouthfeel. Surprisingly flavourful despite what it seems to be a filtered ale.

Sampled on tap from a very nice 100ml glass at the brew house (4.5%ABV). Filmy off-white head that left some great lacing on the glass. Deep mahogany body. Discreet notes of cocoa and spicies in the aroma. Roasted taste of chocolate followed by bitter dark fruits in the ending. Smooth on the swallow and easy to drink (15.11.2007).

Medium beige head. Deep dark red body, barely translucent. Burnt chocolatey aroma with notes of soot and a hint of hops. Taste is clean, clear burntness with a pretty thin body, but this time not so much that it’s a problem. Aftertaste is bitterish hops and burntness. Feels a bit acidic, but it’s probably bitterness. A bit watery. They should allow themselves to go above 4.5%; that would have improved all of these beers. (0.5l draft.)
