Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown in the pour and jet black in the glass, less than a finger's worth of tan foamy head swiftly glided and didn't leave any lace
Aroma: anise/black licorice-ish, light chicory, dark chocolate, woody tones, some earthy scents, light bourbon barrel
Flavor: meshes all the prior noted aromas semi-sweetly with some earthy spicy vibes, finishes mainly with the anise & bourbon barrel spice
Texture: medium bodied, leaning towards the sipping side, light smoothness on the tongue, barrel spices stab the tongue somewhat unexpectedly
Overall: I was hoping for smoke somewhere in this beer but that never happened, however I am not totally disappointed as what was in this glass seemed to be something else which turned out to be pretty good.

Can (thanks Mandells!). Pitch black colour with a small beigeish brown head. Aroma is smoky, some slight roasted elements with mild wood and vanilla as well as some alcohol. Flavour is ripe fruits, some alcohol, mild wood, vanilla, smoke, roasted and mild toffee tones. Quite sweet, but still a very nice drinker/sipper.

Dark brown, tan head. Aroma of caramel, wood, a hint of smoke. Very aromatic and tasty. Quite dry for its strenght, wonderful wooden finish, recin and oak.

Draught at Ølhallen, kindly shared by Finn. Jet black body, scattered lacing from a bubbly, fawn-coloured ring to the rim of the surface. Attractive smoked malty aromas, oaky. Well blended dark malt-driven flavours, featuring oak vanilla, liquorice, and grainy chocolate. Lingering smoked finish warming down the swallow. Full bodied. Lovely. (Tromsø 20.09.2022)

Delt med Rune. Svart. Behagelig whiskyaroma. Mokkafarget filmskum. Silkemyk munnfølelse. Smaken vanilje, bourbon, lakris & sjokolade. Kakao i avslutninga. Utmerket.
