Tap @ Flink Gegist Festival. Almost black. Licorice and smoke in the aroma. Rather thin, Apple syrup, licorice, smoke and roast in the flavor. Tasty but thin.

Draught at Ammutsøn. Very dark brown body, with a big, creamy, lacing, dark beige head. Aroma of bacon, toffee, coffee, dark chocolate, some tobacco, slight dark fruits. Tastes quites similar, while a bit lighter. Medium, creamy mouthfeel, with a low carbonation. Finishes smokey, wooden, dry, with coffee, cocoa powder, tobacco. Very nice. A Bamberg like smokiness, combined with Stout notes. The taste is a bit light though,while the nose is really lovely. Not outstanding maybe, but really enjoyable. Score: 8 / 4 / 7 / 3 / 15

Il gusto al naso viene catturato da caffè e cioccolato. L'olfatto viene sollecitato in maniera elevata e il modo in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma color ocra non è molto persistente. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana media. Il colore è come l'inchiostro nero. Il corpo è strutturato. L'intensità gustativa è elevata. La costanza gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevolissimo. Le sensazioni boccali finali inducono a bevuta compulsiva. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sul palato si fermano sentori di miele, cioccolato fondente, caffè, liquirizia, luppolo, resina e agrumi.
