Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of Dedollewaitor. Pours pitch black with a beige head. Aroma of solid hard roasted malts and licorice. Solid body, low in carbonation, hard roasted malts, dark fruits and licorice but also a strange manure touch. Ashy finish, not really bitter or alcoholic in the finish. 010510

Rating #4900. Thanks very much to Dedollewaitor!
Black with a tiny tan head. Aroma of licorice, dark chocolate, dried fruits and vineous alcohol. Brilliant complexity, certainly helped by the aging. Much the same notes about the flavour with some port wine, and that cherry note you find in the best aged English imperial stouts and foreign extra stouts. There is just a mild roasted character in the finish with a touch of wood even. Awesome beer!

2016-04-19, bottle from Birratrovo, Como; bb Jan 2018, batch 304, 7-4-7-4-15=37
Very nice aroma, biscuits, bread, a bit floral, light apples. Some chocolate flavor, but the body is rather thin, light residual sweetness; some liquorice.
Nice, European style.
2010-01-01, bottle from Birratrovo, Como; first beer of the year, 8-4-8-4-16=40
Black color; medium sized beige and creamy head; suspicious fizzy noise. Very good chocolate aroma, spreading in the room, with cookies, some roasted malt and traces of liquorice. It has a rather oily mouthfeel even if the body is not very strong; the dark caramel and chocolate flavor is immediately joined by a strong liquorice flavor; some of the roasted malt bitterness grows towards the finish, the end is also very salty.
It gets better after some breathing in the glass.
Indeed interesting, with some degree of complexity; it could be better with a stronger body.
