330ml bottle from Yamaya Liquors. Pours dark brown, almost black with a beige head. Foam is not too rich but some lacing stays for longer. Aroma has roasted malt, is quite soft. Taste is soft as well, almost like a milk stout / kind of sweet and soft roast. Aftertaste is nice, has a lot of roast, bitter chocolate. Overall quite nice brew, on the sweeter side but quite enjoyable.

Can sample at a tasting at Naamaβs place. Thanks Naama. Black with a small light brown head. Pleasant aroma of roast, chocolate, a bit of coffee, slightly acidic and a light smoky touch. Bittersweet flavor, roast, with a smoky note, chocolate, a bit of coffee and a drier finish with some bitterness. Rounded mouthfeel.

Can from Liquor Mountain. It poured with lots of amber head, lightly carbonated with a malty/caramel aroma reminiscent of Guiness. It had a pleasent mouthfeel.

29.06.2013, 0,33l bottle @ Hakkasan NY:
Nice creamy slightly brown longlasting head. Aroma is mild and well balanced, dark malts, licorice, coffee, burnt caramel, hay. Taste is slightly dry, dark malts, roasted coffee, burnt caramel, licorice, grass, hay, dark sugar, hints of almond essence. Medium bitterness, slightly dry mouthfeel. Coming from Japan, this is really good!

Small dark brown head. Dark red barely translucent body with carbonation. Deep dark chocolate aroma with earthy perfumy fruity notes. Dry-sweet chocolate and fruit taste with almond notes. Mid-bodied. Mild mouthfeel. Dry-bitter chocolate and earth aftertaste with long smoky burnt tar notes. Nice! (0.33l can shared by hcalsos.)
