6.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7
Bottle, shared with VANØ Bergen. Pours very dark, although not quite black, with a thick, creamy head. Aroma is roasted chocolate malts, cocoa and coffee. Nice flavour with a bit more of a punch, which includes roasted malts, coffee and, somewhat surprising, notes of smoky peat, together with some sweet notes of caramel and burned sugar.

Bottle from Delirium Cafe, Rio. It pours black, with a thick tan head. The nose is charcoal, roasted malt, smoke, chocolate, caramel and distinct umami. The taste is charcoal, caramel, toffee, milk chocolate, burnt malt and meat, with a dry-roasted finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. A really solid stout.

Dark red. Lots of caramel aroma and flavor. All malt, lightly sweet, with considerable alcohol on the palate. Herbal finish. It could use some age, but a solid beer.

7.5% ABV
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.

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.
