Erebus

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Clear orangey brown with a nice, off-white head. Discreet nutty nose. Quite full-bodied, nutty accents with a little caramel and a fairly bitter and alcoholic finish. Not really that exciting. 010209

bottle from ølbutikken. cloudy dark brown, thick light brown head. aroma is chocolate, toffee, roasted malts, flavor is malty, roasted malts, dark chocolate, s little toffee (too much, i hate toffee), mouthfeel is round, overall impression is mild and inviting,but you have to be into chocolate and sweet beers.

Copper with a medium off-white head. Aroma of caramel, chocolate, hard roasted malt, fruity yeast and possibly a touch of American hops? A rich and sweet malty flavour with just enough hops. Again there is a hard roasted note, and I don’t like it. I can see on the label that it’s cold extract of chocolate malt - it should make it gentler, but didn’t work well enough for my taste. The mouthfeel is huge, just as it should in a malt heavy strong ale.

Bottled. A hazy chestnut colored beer with a huge orangey head. The aroma is malty with notes caramel and bread. The flavor is sweet with notes caramel, nuts, bread, brown sugar, and alcohol, leading to a dry malty and alcoholic.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy dark orange to brown with a diminished off-white head. Dark breadish malty and fruity dense aroma. Yeasty too. Sweet caramel malty, smooth roasted malty, nicely hoppy counterbalance. Mild yeasty presence and lovely caramel and breadish roasted malty presence. Lasting fruity impression of yeasty, solid roasted malt, quite hoppy and lingering warmth from the alcohol. Well done.
