330ml bottle, sold to me by djoeye. Rings of lace down the glassware from a slowly declining tan head, almost black body. Smoothly roasted grainy chocolate malts on the nose, appealing. Solid malt-driven flavours of dark chocolate, anise, earth and wood. Semi-sweet, roasted malty finish, long-lived and warming down the swallow. Well bodied. Decent slow sipper on a lazy Sunday afternoon. (Tromsø, 18.05.2025).

A black beer, a head is quite big, dense and brown. Aroma has liquorice, chocolate, roastiness, some salt liquorice, caramel and vanilla. Taste has liquorice, strenghtness of maltyness, salt liquorice, light dry barrel. Full bodied, not bad stickyness. I didn't expect as great beer as this is. Bralanced and powerful.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
Magus, röstine, vaniljene, lagritsane, alks. Ok
Roast, cocoa, chocolate, sweet, berries, thick, cognac, alcohol

Bottle shared with the RateBeer Munich Tasting Group, Tuesday 10th December 2019 at Jonas's, Garching. Lots of Bourbon on the nose, however quite a beefy beer, some stock, the aroma is doing more for me than the flavour, though I guess there is a lot to be said for not being cloyingly sweet.
