Black color; creamy beige head, persistent. The aroma is quite balanced (caramel and roasted malt). Good body strength; dark caramel taste, a bit oily, with a very strong presence of liquorice and enough roasted malt. The roasted malt is dominant in the final, where it gives also a light sourness. It’s a good one, if you are a fan of the style look for it.

Dark chestnut color; big head. Malty aroma, with caramel and soft vanilla touch. Good body strength, some malt flavor, stronger caramel (quite sweet); in the final there is a very light touch of roasted malt. Simple but enjoyable; it would be better with some more hopping/bitterness.

An opaque black beer with a fine though disappearing chocolate brown head. The aroma is sweet with notes of chocolate, roasted malt, and coffee. The flavor is sweet chocolate with notes of coffee, and a dry roasted end, but the body is thin.

Dark amber color. Nice aroma of malt, caramel, some fine hop. Strong mouthfeel, malt, a lot of caramel, a bit burning alcohol; strong ending bitterness. Not really complex, but very good. Thanks Philippe (Bov) for sharing this one.

Bottled. Deep ruby with rich firm head. Fruity, flowery hop aroma. Sweet and richly malty with pleasant soft mouthfeel. Aromatic hops and plums are obvious. Salty, bitter finish. Wow...

Bottled. Ruby coloured with rich, dense, creamy, lasting head. Aroma of crystalized sugar. Sweet and light bodied for a bock, chewy malt dominates. The classic urbock flavours are there, like in a lighter version of the Namibian Hansa Urbock. A drawback is the finish, where peppery saccharine is present rather than the expected bitterness. Still a really good beer.
