With Robert The Great we refer to Lord of Liddesdale, Robert I, popularly known as Robert the Bruce, was king of Scotland from 1306 until his death in 1329. Robert I was one of the most famous warriors of his generation, eventually leading Scotland during the First War of Scottish Independence against England. He fought successfully during his reign to regain Scotland’s place as an independent country and today is revered in Scotland as a national hero. This naughty one does what Robert once did, conquering a place of independence in the wild jungle of globalization.

200ml draught, shared with Finn at Den Gode Nabo. Black in the glass, poor lacing, missing head. Fine roasted chocolate malts on the nose. The flavoured profile has got moments of black chocolate, liquorice and Belgian yeast strain. Lingering ending with a spicy note. Well bodied. Nice, not easy to drink though. (Trondheim, 05.08.2026).

Bottle, bb 7/25. Black, a tan head is very soon gone. Yeasty stewed fruit and roast aroma with some chocolate, herbs. Lowish carbonation, a little more than medium bodied. Some orange and anise are there upon a taste. A swell of booze. More than enough bitterness to take the richness away. Oak at the end. Pretty good.

3 year old 11.2oz bottle. A pinch oxidized. Sweet, heavy, rich...of course. Thick chocolate fudge, the Belgian yeast gives it fruity depth, almost a port like undertone. Even with that, a little bit one note, too big for its own good. Still enjoyable.

Aromas are dark malt, roast, toffee, molasses and a bit of Belgian yeast. Flavors are similar to nose, just a bit sweet with soft carbonation. A touch bitter to balance. Incredibly smooth. No sign of alcohol. Very nice.

Pours dark brown into a tulip. Mocha head with good retention recedes leaving trailing sheets. Chocolate covered pit fruit aromas. Sweet and tart with dark chocolate covered cherry upfront turning to oak and espresso in the sweet, lasting finish.

Bottle at home, cellared this one for 1.5 years. Pours black with an off-white head. Nose is chocolate, coffee, booze, molasses, some caramel. Taste is sweet malty, chocolatey and sugary, there are dried fruits and molasses in there. Oh and it's heavily boozy. Also, pretty thin for the ABV. Underwhelming, sadly.
