Black color, with medium sized creamy head, and apparently high carbonation. The coffee aroma is truly convincing. Dry mouthfeel, smooth too; delicate, harmonious coffee flavor, chocolatey; the aging added a light yeasty (cheesy, ammonia) touch, creating a delicious result.

2009-10-20, draught at Bishop’s Arms, Malmö, 7-4-6-2-13=32
Dark mahogany color. Nice aroma of roasted malt and chocolate, with cereals and nuts, a bit dusty too. Medium body structure, actually thinner in the end; dark caramel flavor with sme chocolate, possibly too dry in the end; there is a very light final liquorice touch; correct bitterness. Elegant but nothing special.

500ml bottle bought at Systembolaget in Linköping. Steady, tan coloured head. Almost mahogany in body appearance with great clarity. Rich and attractive aroma of cocoa malts. Earthy malts in flavour developing into the smooth taste of chocolate, cocoa and a few hints of cinnamon spices, and ending with notes a bitter roastiness. Rounded mouth feel. Well made and a pleasure to drink (shared with Finn, Tromsø 01.12.2009).

Flaske 0,5l delt med Rune. Dyprød/svart på farge. Veldig høyt kremaktig skum med litt farge. Sterk aroma med litt ristet malt & kaffe. Deilig på smak: Kaffe & ristet malt. Langvarig ettersmak i samme gate. Minner mye om en porter. Kanskje litt uvariert - men bevares: Denne kunne jeg ha drukket mye av. KI=2

Draft. A deep red beer with thin brown head. The aroma has strong notes of roasted malt, soy sauce, and wood. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of soy sauce and wood as well as medium notes of nuts, bitter dark chocolate, prunes and a bit of fruits, leading to a dry roasted and woody finish
