(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of Grovlam. Haus der 131 Biere version - probably license brewed in Belgium. Pours a beautiful, warm, clear, reddish brown with a handsome, creamy, beige head. Lightly sweet, chocolatey nose. Medium body, soft, roasted malt notes, not overly burned. Subdued bitterness. Quite nice actually. 150807

Dark brown color. Bad smell, sewage and dirty water. Quite weak body, some caramel flavor and again dirty water flavor too. Horrible.

Bottled (German brewn... Haus der 131 Biere...). Dark ruby reddish/almost black colour, with small brown head. Aroma is malts and sweetness. Flavour is acidic, malty and then quite full of nothing. Could do as a dunkel or dark lager...

(33 cl bottle at Delirium Café, Göteborg, Sweden) Dark color, might be black, but hard to see in the light setting of the pub. Huge bubble tan head. High CO2 level, pours over the edge of the glass fairly easy. Fresh malty, sort of lager, scent. A bit acid, but not much. Acid taste. Weak mouth feel and very low bitterness. A rather week stout.

Bottled, brewed in Germany
Almost opaque dark brown, decent expresso head. Crisp, even lemony aroma. Roasted flavor, quite thin, foamed mouthfeel. Some hops pop up in the finish. Reminds me about Hartwall Porter.

Dark brown color, with a slightly sour chocolatey nose. Sour start, weak chocolatey mouth that is rathering boring. Dark chocolatey malty finish. Rated with a cold.
