Bottle, 0.33l. Aroma of coffee, roasted malt, chocolate and coconut. Pours almost black color with medium sized but quickly diminishing light brown head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts with sweet chocolate and licorice, follows by coffee, roasted malt and coconut, mouthfeel is warm alcoholic, while finish is mild bitter. Full body, thick texture and average carbonation in palate. Headbanger’s coconuts...

(Thanks, Jim! Ozzy70) Bottle. A- Coconut, cocoa, sweet. A- Black color, black liquid, minimal head. T- Coconut, dark chocolate, roasted coffee beans, sweet. P- Full body, average texture, average carbonation, sweet finish. O- Really good as I would expect. Almost like a coconut tootsie roll. The coffee had more of a bright chocolate flavor than coffee. Perhaps best suggested as a mocha. It was a bit cloying but still tasty.

Kicsi, tartós, sötétbarna hab, vöröses árnyalatú fekete szín. Csokis, kakaós, kókuszos, kávés és aszalt gyümölcsös illat. Kávés, csokis, kakaós, kókuszos ízek, aszalt gyümölcsös aromákkal. Édeskés, testes, enyhén szénsavas, erősen keserű. Nagyon finom desszertsör.

Bottle, 0.33l. Black pour, thin creamy brown layer on top, short lasting. Average lacing on the glass. Solid nose, not as strong coconut presence as expected, more like lingering there subtly in the background. Strong sugary notes, mild woody, mild smoke. Full body, soft to medium carbonation. Creamy texture, soft on the tongue, nice and chewy. Really pleasant on the palate. Roasty bitter, sugary sweet taste with notable alcohol presence. Aroma of caramel malt, toffee, molasses. Sugary, syrup, somewhat sticky. Coffee liquor. Mild lingering coconut in the background, some vanilla hints. Nice balance and complexity. Warming alcohol, subtle burn on the tongue. But again it's really well balanced and not overpowering despite the high percentage. Medium to long lasting finish, dry and liquory, lingering coconut and latte notes. Tasty.

Bottle from Brewcraft at home after getting back from Europe. Dark dark brown nearly black pour with quickly disappearing light tan head. Aroma is strong fruity coffee (really nice), roasted chocolate, warm alcohol, coconut. Very big. Taste is very boozy and and coffee at first, sweet nutty coconut, then very bitter slightly fruity, in a weird way. Almost too sharp. Lasting warmth and sharp bitterness. Rich but not heavy despite low carbonation and slight syrupiness. Good but probably wouldn’t get again.

0,33l bottle from Uba ja Humal, Tallinn. Dark, almost black beer with very small and quickly vanishing head. Aroma has dark coffee, malts, smoke, chocolate, vanilla and cocoa. Flavor has roasted malts, dark coffee, cocoa, ashes, dry bitterness and spices. Some alcohol at the end. Sweet, a bit too one-sided and alcoholic overall.

Bottle. An oily pour leaves an almost headless dark brown body. There's lots of coffee in the aroma, with dark chocolate, alcohol, booze, hints of vanilla and a vague hint of licorice. It's full bodied, warming and smooth, with a nice sweetness. Licorice, coffee, vanilla, dark chocolate and a fine booze touch in the flavor. Lasting finish. 191230
