330ml bottle. Black colour with late awakening, very small, creamy, diminishing, minimally lacing, tan head, a thin layer remains. Condensed dark malty aroma, notes of chocolate, molasses, treacle, vanilla, a touch of liquorice and soy sauce, cautious hints of peat. Taste is initially moderately sweet dark malty, notes of treacle, molasses, some chocolate, switches later to more dry and roasty dark malty with bitter hoppy overtones, some warming alcohol in the finish; soft carbonation. A plethora of flavours, nevertheless relatively light and narrow - can’t believe in the 13%.

On tap @ Borefts 2013. It looks really really dark in the glass this one. As good as black really and the little head it once had disappears quite quickly into a bubbly dark sidesticking film. The nose has lots and lots of coffee sweetness. Mocha and lactose with some roasted elements. Smells like it has a gliding mouthfeel, and it really does. Soft prickling on the carbonation. Can't really sense the higher alcohol content here. Well, it's there but it's superb camouflaged. Chocolate plates and coffee making the main ingredients in the taste. Ends soft dry om the tongue with a lingering chocolate aftertaste. Absolutely decent. 28.09.2013

28.09.2013, tap @ Borefts:
Completely flat. Aroma is neutral, dark malts, licorice, cocoa, coffee. Taste is slightly neutral, dark malts, oak, licorice, alcohol, cocoa, burnt coffee. Medium to longlasting bitterness, dry mouthfeel. This beer could very well be just another boring low alcohol boring beer. But 13%?! Yeah right!!
