0.33l bottle from #0062. Nice label! It's definitely what you'd call dark and oily in the pour. Near black in the glass this one with a medium sized lasting and side spotting lacings from the dark brown head. It has a mild coffee sourness with paper initially on the nose. Lots of sweet chocolate, and he milky lactic kind. After a while in the glass I get more licorice tones. The sweet kind and cocoa. Quote nice and roasted nose. Tastes really good. It has a nice oily texture in the mouth and it's about average I'd say on the carbonation. Lots of chocolate, dark and deep. I get nice coffee, some chocolate cake and a little toasted nuts in the finish. There's also lots of dark soy sauce tones in this one - reminding me of sushi. Really lightdrinkable for a imp stout, and superb tasty! 02.04.2016

330ml bottle, lot #082, at Piccadilly Pub in Bodø. Black body, low, tan-coloured head leaving spotty lacing down the glass. Nicely roasted dark malty aroma. Rich dark malty flavours including moments of coffee and liquorice. Dark fruity ending with a piney touch, well-balanced and long lived. Full bodied. Enjoying (02.03.2016).

330 ml bottle @ Patricks. Dark brown, practically black with a fine, stable, dense, creamy, lacing beige head. Pleasant aroma of dark, roasted malt, coffee, chocolate and hint of pine. Flavor is medium sweet, almost dry in malt flavor, but some light balancing sweetness from dry fruit. Coffee, dark chocolate, hint of liquorice and balancing bitterness. Good balanced body and a long lasting aftertaste of dark, roasted malt that ends quite dry, almost a bit acidic. A really nice, robust stout with some complexity and well-hidden alcohol.

Bottle at Piccadilly, Bod�. Pours a pitch black color with a light brown creamy head. A little careful aroma of dark chocolate, coffee beans, leather and rubber. The flavor is more roasted with lots of coffee beans, ash and dark chocolate. Has an incredibly soft mouth feel, full-bodied and a light bitterness. A great, roasted and well-balanced IS. Surprisingly easy-drinking.
