Cask at Københavnske Øldage. Black pour, with a little topping of tan bubbles. Very coffeeish nose, with both chocolate and hops. Quite bitter in the mouth, from both hops and coffee. Even though there’s lots of coffee flavor, it feels rounded and smooth. Probably the most fullbodied cask beer I’ve ever tasted, dry, and with a long coffee finish. Yet another wonderful, crazy beer from Mikkeller. (070511)

RB #500. CBF07 sample from cask. Pours black with a huge brown head. Aroma is roasted malt, coffee. Creamy mouthfeel. Taste is very complex yet in perfect balance, the different coffee gives the beer much soft feel. There is coffee and bitter hops together with tart bitterness of the chocolate that is providing a differentiated bitterness through a sip. Starts hop bitter, then coffee followed by chocolate and ending in a characteristic coffee bitterness blended with hops. Chocolate and oatmeal also provide a sweetness and softness throughout. Aroma hops (cascade and centinnial) gives the beer a slight touch of freshness without at any time stealing the picture from this full coffee, chocolate and oatmeal breakfast. Overall a softer beer geek than the bottled version. Cbc 2014: From tap. Pours pitch black with a small tan head. Aroma is dense coffee and chocolate malty. Coffee, light soapy and chocolate. Bitter and roasted, dry malty and bitter hoppy. Lingering dark malty into a coffee smooth finish.848416

[Another century celebrated with a Mikkeller beer - this time 8300] Cask. A pitch black beer with a bubbly brown head. The aroma is of very dark bitter sweet dessert chocolate, and ground cocoa beans combined with light notes of grapefruit and coffee. The flavor is very complex with notes of dark bitter chocolate, grapefruit, good coffee, and a good deal of hops, giving it a nicely bitter finish.

Cask @ Københavnske Øldage 2007 in Copenhagen. Dark brown / black color with a small head. Aroma is heavy malty, burnt, dark chocolate, strong coffee, moderate hoppy. Flavor is moderate sweet and heavy bitter with a long duration. Body is full, texture is oily, syrupy, carbonation is flat. Very nice ;o))

Cask at CPH festival: Pitch black with little bubbly head. Burnt chocolate/coffee roast. Incredible (like Whoa) smooth & soft texture. Sweetness before a power hoppy and sticky lasting finish. Oily palate. Fantastic damage!

Cask at Københavnske Øldage. Very black, no head. Salty tarry nose. Sweet and salty, soft and solidly malty, yet never sticky or bold. The hops and the coffee has a drying effect, but still lets malt driven licorice flavours dominate. Salty bitter finish. Excellent beer. Had this as the first beer on the festival, and already then I knew that even if this was to be the best beer of the festival I would not go home disappointed. Not just a wacky beer, it’s actually damn good!
