This dark brown to black beer is packed with aromas of chocolate cake, cocoa, coffee, some butter and dried fruits. Flavor is sweet-based with notes of roasted malt, dark chocolate, lightly bitter coffee, and a savory touch. Full bodied with soft carbonation.

Tap at Mikkeller Pop Up. Lovely stuff. High on cocoa, only light booziness, bit of bitter chocolate. Smooth. Not too sweet. Good stuff.

33 cl bottle poured in to a Snifter. BBE September 2020. Near black with a few tanned bubbles on top. Sweet aroma with cocoa, caramel malts, coffee, brown cookies, liquorice, vanilla and a herbal bitterness. Taste is sweet. Full bodied. Drying roasted finish with cocoa, vanilla and dark malts. Excellent nightcap.

330ml can at Alex's. 22% ABV. Says IS brewed with vanilla and cocoa beans. No coffee mentioned in the ingredients. Appearance: very dark brown with the same head. Aroma: vanilla and chocolate, really similar to the just vanilla shake. Taste: on the chocolate side with some vanilla and bitterness. Overall: good.

33 cl can at Mikkeller Madrid, stated at 12%. So dark a shade of brown one could swear it's pitch black, with a minimal tan head that lasts but an instant. Very intense and clear aromas of coffee, dark chocolate and vanilla; there's also a hint of marshmallow. Creamy and silky yet noticeably boozy (12%, people!) and super bitter, even though there's acidity in the mix balancing things off. You get your sweetness only after sipping, along a lot more roasty bitterness that never leaves: super persistent. Not for the faint-hearted, but deffinitely for the stout-lovers.

Black with a minimal light brown head. Aroma of vanilla, cocoa and sense of corn. Sweet with a good vanilla and cocoa end.

Draught, half pint. @«Artbeerfest 2019», Caminha (Portugal). 12/07/2019. Oily black colour with a medium tan head. Aroma is bourbon, oak barrels, vanilla anderror black chocolate. Taste is big bourbon, vanilla and molasses. Oily and thick. Big boozy. Good for a sip, not for a pint. Next one please!
