Draught at Lord Nelson, Copenhagen
Black color; small beige head. Mild aroma, fresh, with some fruits, chocolate, ember, some yeast; interesting. Medium body strength, roasted malt flavor, but not too aggressive, surely dry, with a refreshing hopping. The final is a bit too dry.
Not bad, but personally I don’t share the passion for Dark IPAs, I just don’t think that the burnt character of black malts fit with the fruitiness of the hops; at least what is needed is some softer roasting level and some sweetness..

Draught@SBWF2010. Deep rubyish black colour with small yellowish beige head, which leaves nice lace. Aroma is roasted malts, some slight coffee, chocolate, mild spruce as well as some quite fruity notes. Flavour is fruity, coffeeish, chocolaty, mildly vanillaish and wooden as well. Quite bitter finish.

(Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival, 2 Oct 2010) Black colour with hints of ruby when seen through light. Firm creamy beige head. Roasted, malty nose with coffee, dark chocolate and hints of pine needles. Roasted, malty taste with notes of coffee, chocolate, cocoa and hints of pine needles in a dry, fairly bitter finish. More than medium body, dry. Very tasty and in excellent balance. Lovely beer.

Draught at Lord Nelson, shared with and courtesy of Papsoe (thanks!). Tiny tan head, black body. Sweetish light tropical fruit aroma hop nose. Taste... more of the same, aroma hops, some random bitter grainy roast, dunno how to explain it. The two don’t mix properly and in the end, despite my best intentions to love it, it’s, at least for me, a bit of a letdown. Ah well.
