Bottled at Stockholm Beer Festival. Cloudy dark brown, minimal head. Meaty soy sauce aroma. Takes full bodied to the extreme. Very sweet withlots of caramel. Thick with lots of power and even more molasses. Syrupy finish. Too thick and raw. Needs a century or so to mature.

Bottled@The Bishop’s Arms, Vasagatan, Stockholm. Quite much pitch black colour, no head. Aroma is wood, liquorice, alcohol, burnt sugar and some spices. Also dark chocolate and some espresso coffee. Flavour is wood, sweet liquorices, ashes, burnt wet wood and some slight notes of dark fruits. Big liquorice, herbs and ashes in the finish. Very wellbalanced and hides the alcohol really well.

Bottle at 3 Små Rum, Göteborg, on August 30, 2009Black color, no head. Alcohol, roasted and chocolate scent. Salty, licorice, sweet taste. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bitterness.Guess it wouldn’t hurt to let this one rest a couple of years to get the sharp alcohol edge to wear off a bit.

Bottle @ RBESG Grand tasting 2009. Deep dark brown color, no head. Malt, just a bit of vennel, caramel and raspberry in the flavor. No carbonation whatsoever. Alcoholic, roasty flavor, vinous and caramelly. Still needs a lot of time to fully develop.

Bottled. A pitch black beer with no head. The aroma has notes of alcohol, brown sugar, and soy sauce. The flavor is sweet though with an acidic edge from the hard roasted malt with notes of soy sauce, wood, and alcohol, as well as light notes of oxidation, leading to a dry woody finish. A bit too much for my liking.

RBESG Sheffield 2009 Grand Tasting at the Harlequin. Black colour, no head. Aroma of sweet molasses, caramel, soy sauce. Flavour is soy, roasted malts, alcohol, a bit of coffee. Light bitter earthy finish. Fat mouthfeel. Ah, now I see the ABV, that explains a lot..A bit too much of everything in this one.
