0.44 l can thanks to Marko, shared with Ogi and him. Dark brown mocca colour to black, medium creamy beige head. Aroma is dark roasted coffee, vanilla beans, cocoa, biscuit, roasted malts. Slightly burnt. Smooth, full, juicy, but intense roasty, licorice, astringent burnt flavour. Too intense, harsh, but has its unique character. Burnt rubber, almost peat smoke. Finishes sweet and harsh.

Canned, batch 90, huge thanks HP! Pitch black body, lasting tan off-whtie head. Oxidized, sharp aroma, caramel, citric liqueur, vanilla. Lean dry taste, oxidized, tea notes, high roast, good chocolate profile, but bit too aggro roast-wise, the oxidation got to it a bit too much, or it's too rough for its own good. Sadly... not my favorite.

Black engine oil with more or less no head. Good intensity in the aroma. Not to sweet for a beer like this and a fine mellow carbonation level. Quite easy to drink. Dark malt, coffee, chocolate and lot of licorice in the flavor [Bottle from Gundersen Travel]
