Bottle, no obvious date. Sometimes things show up at funny times here. Oily pour. Black, a brown head is very soon gone. Aroma of nuts, sweet shop spices, mocha and some roast. Well short of syrupy and only sweetish with quite a lot of bitterness - some of it coffee and roasted. Low carbonation. Despite the aroma it's mostly roasted malt and mocha with a fair bit of overt alcohol (although not heaps for nearly 14%). But the nuts and spices add a touch - very much where I'd want them to be. A bit wearing after 200ml. Good.

Pours black, small tanned ring of foam. Scent is cinnamon, complex, roasty. Taste is full, roasty, cinnamon ( tad too much ) Mild bitterness. fairly fullbodied, yet not super thick. Nice, but to much gravitated to the cinnamon side.

Flaska från Beergium. Svart med brun mocca-färgad krämig krona. Rejäla mängder med kaffe och kanel med vaniljen och pekanen längre bak. Stor kropp och rejält intensiv i smaken. Kanelen tillsammans med sötman från vaniljen och fylligheten i kroppen väcker associationen till kanelbulle-deg och inte fullt bakade Gifflar, med den omätliga kombinationen smör/socker/kanel. De saltade pekannötterna kanske bidrar till det hela. Stor, maffig, mycket gott.

Pitch black color. Dark brown head. Coffee peacan cinnamon m. Smells like a peacan cinnamon waffles and powdered chocolate. Amazing nose. Low carbonation, sweet but never cloying tons of spices and peacan. Super well balanced and great depth. Medium light body with the waffles continuing with chocolate. Never too sweet nice finish.

Bottle thanks to Ben. Pours black with medium frothy tan head. The aroma is strong cinnamon, roast, dark chocolate. Medium body, similar flavors to nose, bone dry finish, very good.
