500ml (thx, Brian S. for the bottle and Tom B. for keeping this since COVID started) @ Andrey's. Appearance: dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: sweetness, dark fruits, coconut and some coffee. Taste: along the same lines, fruit soap notes, inky bitterness, some coffee and coconut. Overall: just an ok, looks like 2 COVID years didn't add to this beer at all.

500ml bottle. Smooth, sweetish and slightly roasty with loads of coconut, coffee, cocoa, syrup and toffee. Quite heavy.

Thanks Justin for sharing! Teku showing deep brown with no head. The nose shows a lot of milk chocolate and light bourbon. The palate is medium bodied and lightly carbonated. Milk chocolate forward throughout with light bourbon.

Flaska från Beergium. Svart med beigebrun liten krona. Ganska rejäl ton av kaffe, espresso, saltlakrits, en ganska markant sälta, mörk choklad och kakaonibs. Kokosen växer fram efter en stund, känner den knappt alls inledningsvis. Märks mer i doft än smak. Något större kropp, mjuk och fin. Ganska intensiv i kaffesmaken utan att det blir vare sig syrligt eller grön paprika. Väldigt snygg och elegant, sticker inte iväg åt något håll samtidigt som den är potent. Stor och kaxig, ändå elegant. Snygg!

(500ml 2018 bottle shared @ Nische's tasting, thanks to the host!) Pours pitch black with a medium sized tan head and lace. Notes of rather heavy roast with a prominent soy sauce and acidic component, some spent coffee grounds, cacao, earth, umami. No real coconut or vanilla component. Some dark caramel sweetness but rather dry on the whole, dusty and rather bitter from the roast. Medium-bodied, soft creamy carbonation. Huh, this is not what I was expecting at all. Feels as though the 2018 batch is lacking, especially in bottle. Where are the adjuncts?
