Pours viscously & headless; 1 mm head forming after a couple of seconds, only to disappear as quickly again; near black beer. Mushrooms, bacon and sweet, strong coffee - this is full breakfast! Sweet-roasted, coffee with a bitter ending, that is at least partly hoppy. Warming up, more depth with black cardemom and more smoked. Very balanced, which is rare, here. Unbelievably thick, viscous, voluptuous MF, alcoholwarming. Nice, rich I.S.

Draught at ACBF 2011. Looks good in the glass, deep black, small head. Intense malty-dry aroma. Starts strong, fine malty, almost a bit smoky, hints of vanilla and coffee. Well balanced finish, a bit sweet, modest woody. Very good!

Bottle shared at a tasting. Dark brown to black. Aroma of coffee, mocha, some smokiness and wood. Sweetish roasty/smoky flavor with a bit of sourness and a bit of fruits, especially towards the semi-dry finish. Full-bodied. Interesting and pretty good.

Bouteille @ ACBF2011. Noire, fine mousse beige. Arôme léger de moka, chocolat avec des résidus de chêne et un côté finement épicé ainsi que accompagné de qcq fruits. En bouche, l’épice du chêne ressort sans pour cela prendre le dessus, cela accompagne parfaitement le moka qui en final laisse un fini allant vers la réglisse. Le malt et chocolat sont épais au palais et forment une sorte de fudge. A noter aussi, un peu de café ou espresso avec l’alcool qui est réchauffant. Un très bel effort de cette brasserie allemand qui n’a pas peur d’innover.
