From a 375ml bottle on 10/5/2018. Pours not far off black with a small tan head. The aroma features chocolate and soy. Some milk chocolate and a hint of caramel kick things off, but it's not the sweetest impy. There's a fair bit of bitterness - roasty and dry, with some coffee and licorice. Fullish body with moderate carbonation. Bold and flavoursome, but just a touch rough and lacking in balance.

Tasting @ Koelschtrinker. Smooth chocolate nose. The beer starts fresh with smooth chocolate. Deep, dry malty, not sticky with a dry chocolaty deep body. Malt, dry grain, caramel. Easy tod rink, very deep, round and smooth with not much bitterness.

Sampled from 0.375 l bottle from 'De Bierkoning', best before November 2018. Pitch black with a beige head. Sweetish-malty, quite roasty and a little fruity aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, licorice and some dark fruits. Quite sweet, malty, rather roasty and a little fruity taste of dark chocolate, licorice, some coffee and a touch of dark fruits, followed by a medium long, rather roasty-bitter, earthy-dry finish. Medium to full body, almost creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice!
