On tap at Haandgemeng. An unclear dark brown beer topped by a small, short-lived beige head. Roasted malts, dried fruits, caramel hints, some coffee and wood, and lightly piney, citrus zest-ish hops. Some alcohol, both in aroma and flavor. It's full-bodied, lightly warming and smooth on the palate, with a soft bitterness and quite a lot of sweetness. Roasted malts, dried fruits, some caramel, coffee and wood, and pine cones, grapefruit and resins in the flavor. Long finish. A nice one, unusual but nice. 171027

On tap at Haandgemeng. It pours a more or less black body, at least it's not see-through. A small dark beige head sits on top. Some lacing. The aroma has coffee, dark sugar, dark dried fruits, a burnt touch and some licorice. It's full-bodied, sweet and smooth on the palate, with roasted malts, coffee, brown sugar, prunes and dried figs, some burnt malts and licorice flavors. Lasting malty finish. Sure, it's sweet, yet perhaps a bit on the dry side. Nice anyway. 171027

Huge thanks to Erzengel for sharing. Beer in the glass zippy, small head. Fruity aroma. Starts mild, fruity-hoppy. Some notes of peaches, some apricot. Mild sourish touch. Finish well balanced. Not bad.

440ml can. Black with a thin tan head. Aroma of tonka, coffee, dark chocolate, molasses. Taste is slightly sweet, tonka, dark chocolate, bitter coffee, roast malts, molasses and a touch of honey. Full bodied, thick, smooth. Literally identical to Dark Times Dark Measures, just a bit stronger is all.
