Bottle 330ml @ Førtito Bar & Bowling, Sarpsborg
Pours black with a tan head. Aroma has notes of roasted malt, chocolate, licorice, citrus, alcohol and hint of soya sauce. Taste is medium sweet and medium bitter with a long warm, chocolate and bitter finish. Body is full, texture is oily, carbonation is soft to flat.

Bottle, at 42. It pours a black body under a small, tan head. Lots of molasses in the aroma, with roasted malts, coffee and salty licorice. Lots of flavor, salty licorice, roasted malts, coffee and some dark chocolate. A tad too warning. Full body, sweet on the palate. Really lasting finish, with lots of salty licorice. Although too sweet and warming, sure a nice one. 140215

33 cl bottle @ RIP camp, BBE 2018
An aroma unexpected – some toffee typical to British ales, licorice and some grass. Flavour is rather hoppy with licorice, some toffee typical to British ales. Also rather strong boozy notes – and also strong salty licorice notes on some sips. What is this shit? Finishes with forever lingering hops. Not sure what to say about this but at least this is salty, boozy and hoppy.

330ml bottle @ RIP Camp. Thanks lusikka!
Pours pitch black with a bubbly white head. Aroma of grassy, bitter, fruity hops, roastiness, sweet dark chocolate, vanilla, wood, licorice and grass. Taste is insanely hoppy and bitter with notes of licorice, roastiness, dark ripe fruity, caramely and sweetish with notes of dark chocolate and wood. Finish is long lasting, lingering bitter, insanely hoppy and dark fruity with hints of chocolate and licorice. Alcohol is extremely well hidden. Wow, this is quite extreme stuff. As a hophead you just gotta love this. Every sip feels like a different beer, the bitterness, roastiness and hoppiness just keeps on coming. Awesome stuff! Just... WOW! Tried this after Bells Black Note Stout and this is MUCH more better than it. I just love massively hoppy imperial stouts and this one is right up my alley. --- Beer merged from original tick of Speed King on 21 Sep 2013 at 20:27 - Score: 10. Original review text: Wow!!!! Insanely hoppy and extreme imperial stout. Awesome stuff.

Tap at Brasserie 420, Roma, 21/06/13. Pitch black with a dirty tan head that clears to the edge leaving a film. Nose is big roast malt, burnt sugar, treacle toffee, dark malt, light booze but not overbearing for the ABV. Taste comprises booze, a little harsh in contrast to the nose, sugars, treacle, bitter chocolate, burnt toffee, molasses, light soap. Full bodied, fine carbonation, a little cloying. Drinkable fayre for the ABV but overall the alcohol was a little harsh when compared to other big beers I’ve had. The booze could have been a little better integrated.

13/05/2013 Brasserie 4:20 (tap). Nera, densa, impenetrabile, schiuma molto scura color cappuccino, leggera e non molto persistente. Naso intensissimo, note di nocino, tostato, liquirizia, luppolo, alcol. In bocca cioccolata all’attacco, quindi caffé e liquirizia, con finale amaro lunghissimo, alcol discretamente nascosto. Corpo pieno, consistenza oleosa, carbonazione leggera. Che bomba!
