Riktigt mörk med brun tjockt skum. Känns på doften som en mediumhumlad kraftig stout med mycket chokladkaraktär. Tjock munkänslan, väldigt fyllig (mer än en stout, mindre än en IS), massor av mörk choklad, kaffe, inte så besk men med fina humlenyanser, lite vanilj och nötter, ganska torr. Bra balans. Riktigt lyckad.

Bottled. Near black, beige head. Powerful aroma of licorice and grapefruit. Dry and roasty, above medium bodied and firm mouthfeel. Citrus and black currant mixes with salty tobacco. Long tarry biterness. A hoppy, aromatic yet nicely drinkable stout.

Rerated 2011-04-01 thx to ekstedt Bottle from SB cons 2011-03-02 Göteborg AR: roasted coffee beans, chocolate, wort bread, melas much more intensive aromas when pored, oak, vanilla are ther for a couple seconds. Great chocolate - smell it fast! AP: dark dark brown, frothy dark beige head F: roasted malt roasted coffey, great bitterness, oak, carbonation. Finish is dry, sea salty and full of bitter coffey. Not that silky that they are claming on the label but a fairly good stout.
