En importation. Merci à Phil. Français: Guimauves rôties, sucre d’orge, cassonnade, tire éponge, mélasse, alcool et torréfaction bien sentie dans cet olfactif extrêmement complexe. Petite mousse effervescente qui ne dure pas. Liquide noir et opaque. Les saveurs de chocolat se mêlent aux guimauves dans une chaleur d’alcool appréciable pour nous donner une entrée de bouche maltée et sucrée. La torréfaction est assez douce et la finale très légèrement terreuse. L’équilibre est manifestement vers le malt et les adjuvants. Délicieux dessert. Bien sucré. English: Roasted marshmallows, barley sugar, brown sugar, sponge taffy, molasses, alcohol and well-felt roasting in this extremely complex olfactory. Small effervescent foam that does not last. Black and opaque liquid. The flavors of chocolate mingle with marshmallows in a heat of alcohol appreciable to give us a malty and sweet mouthcap. The roasting is quite soft and the finish very slightly earthy. The balance is clearly towards malt and adjuvants. Delicious dessert. Very sweet. O:8.63 V:1.67 G:7.63 C:4.15 G:15.7 T:37.78

330 ml bottle. Pours a very dark brown with short fizzy head that dissipates quickly. Aromas of chocolate, hickory smoke, dark sugar, and slick roasted malts. Flavors of toasted marshmallow, lactose, light smoke, sweetened chocolate, vanilla, and roasted malts. Interesting - sweetness cut by the smoked malts.

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.

Delt med A-L & EgilB på Lillehøgda. Svart. Mokkafarget filmskum som forsvinner raskt.Vaniljearoma. Silkemyk munnfølelse. Smaken mere vanilje og tørket frukt. Beskjeden bitterhet. Utmerket dessert (etter nydelig rakfisk). Mere tvilsomt som øl.

0,33 flaske fra VP Lillemarkens, delt med Kitty: brunsvart med ok skum. En nydelig dessertøl med mørke sjokolader, vanilje, litt kokos og et kledelig hint av røykmalt. Plenty av mersmak. So smooth.

Medium to full body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, thick, soft and chewy. Roasty bittersweet taste. Rich aroma, toasted caramel, roasted malt. Coffee, chocolate banana, cake. Strong vanilla and marshmallow. Sticky, lactose. Moderate alcohol presence, dry, light burn. Long lasting finish, lingering alcohol bitterness. Very good.
