Bottle, 0.33l. Pitch black pour, one finger creamy brown head, medium retention, sticky lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, sweet, bready, strong tonka notes. Raisins and figs in the background. Full body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, soft, chewy, creamy. Very nice. Moderately sweet taste balanced with mild liquory bitterness in the background. Aroma of caramel, tonka beans, oats. Coffee and chocolate, dough. Light roasty. Sugary stickiness, molasses. Fruity notes of figs, raisins and cherry. Mild vanilla in the background. Warming alcohol, mild lingering burn. Long lasting finish, dry, boozy, sweet. Quite tasty.

Dunkel malziger Antrunk, süß, weich, viel Tonkabohne. Wenig röstig, vollmundig schokoladig, der Alkohol ist zurückhaltend und dazu gut eingebunden. Cremig, komplex, Rosinen, weich. Langer malziger Abgang, weiterhin viel Tonkabohne. Hervorragend! 10/14/13/14/10/14

Svart med brunt skum. Søt og fyldig. Lukter sjokolade, kaffe og tonka. Begynner å bli mer kjent med smaken av tonka og synes det passer bra i slik øl. Smaker sammen med tonka noe salt lakris, kokesjokolade og kaffe. God:-)
