Velvet is beautiful almost black beer with intence coffee-brown head. Aroma is slightly sour and there are roasted malts and maybe some coffee. Flavour is quite roasted but still nice balanced with sweetness and bitterness. Smooth and nice to drink.

Danke an den Doppelbock für die Tauschabwicklung! Süßer, etwas bitterer Geruch. Wässriger Antrunk, nur minimal ist das Malz zu erkennen. Der Mittelteil ist etwas hopfig und passt nicht zum Antrunk. Im Nachgeschmack kommt das Malz dann wieder zum Vorschein, wieder ist es etwas wässrig. Disharmonisch. Test vom 4.2.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,8,9,10,9,9 - 9,00

Bottle. Clear dark red / brown color with a average good lacing light brown head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, chocolate, coffe. Flavor moderate sweet and light bitter with a short duration. Body is light to medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft, finish feel is moderate to heavy metalic. No my kind of schwartzbier !!

Medium dark beige coarse head; seemingly black body goes dark red at edges. Sweet, milky, toffeeish aroma with caramel and chocolate notes. Harmonic. Roasty, acidic taste with notes of chalk and smoke. Very thin-bodied. Dry, metallic-smoky aftertaste. Disappointing. The aroma is good, but the beer is just too thin. (0.5l bottle.)

A red-brown beer with a disappearing light brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel, while the flavor is sweet malty with notes of straw and a dry end.

Bottled. Black opaque, huge brown creamy/foamy longlasting head. Lacing. Aroma of paperfactory... also some roasted malt as well as old coffee aroma is present. Weak roasted malt in flavour, as well as some sweetish hints. A bit stoutlike as for the roastiness. Sticky palate, and roasted, semibitterish aftertaste.

(Bottle 50 cl) Very dark, almost black with a creamy and quite stable light brown head. Very dry with pronounced notes of the roasted malts, but not really bitter. Top fermented and closer to a dry Irish stout than an ale. A bit like Guinness in Finnish. 160405

Bottled
Almost opaque. Tanned creamy head. Aroma sweet and coffee. Starts bitter, medium thin, sweet toffee and roasted malt, some bitter hops in the end. Just too thin to be excellent beer and needs more ABV but otherwise complex enough and one of the best from KOFF brand, like a little brother of brewery's world famous Porter.(6/5/7/4/14 3.6)
Re-rate: (Bottled, BB 03/2005)
Opaque black with tanned brown medium head. Roasted malt, rubbery aroma. Roasted, slightly sweet and medium-bodied. This is not "an ale" but more like "Schwarzbier". (6/5/5/3/14 3.3)

Dark brown color; big head. Sweet aroma; malt, corn-like, light vanilla. Not really malty, thin mouthfeel in the beginning, it becomes more bitter, with a lot of caramel and roasted nuts.

Subdued aroma: Hops, lemons and a bit bubblegum. Nice dark brown, full creamy head. Tastenotes of chokolate, dark sugar and roasted bits. Lightbodied, exits fast. A topferneted Schwarzbier? I thought this was a porter, oh well :-)
