You get huge aromas of rum, raisins, cherries, plums and chocolate when you take a sniff. It's bursting with flavours of apple syrup, salmiak, dark sugar, chocolate, rum and wood. The result is a really boozy, complex powerhouse of a beer. Cheers, uh his dudeness, or uh duder, or else duderino.

Nagenoeg zwart bier zonder schuim. Smaak is krachtig warm en zoet met iets van chokolade, hazelnoot, room, wat vanille en een vleug rum om het compleet te maken. Heel erg goed wat mij betreft.

Pours a black body and a small beige head with big bubbles that quickly disappears. Aroma's of booze, rum, some sweetness. Retronasal there's booze, sweetness, milk chocolate mixed with boerenjongens. Flavour is heavy sweet, milk chocolatey. Alcohol is sharp at first, mellowing a bit in time. Full bodied, nice and oily. Low but prickly carbonation. Long finish.

Bottle from a local bottle shop. Very tasty with an aroma of oak, rum, chocolate, roast, raisins, caramel, some more dried fruit and alcohol. Medium sweet, light bitter, mild boozy finish. A lot going on, good body, lovely.

33cl Fles van Drankgigant. Zwarte kleur, bruine kraag. Rum, gebrande bruine suiker, eikenhout, hint van vanille, gebrande mout, drop, licht aards, melkchocolade, droppig bittere finish. Medium tot volle body, glad mondgevoel. Erg lekker, drinkt gevaarlijk makkelijk weg voor 15.5%. Met een wat meer stroperige body was dit helemaal een knaller geweest.
