330ml bottle as part on an online order from Beers of Europe and drunk at home. Very dark brown with almost no light getting through. A ring of beige/khaki head. Smells of thick caramel, coffee, plums, ash. Sweet but balanced taste, plenty of vanilla, milky coffee, peaty whisky. Bitterness in the finish. Body is thick and oily with little carbonation. An absolute joy.

330ml bottle bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Pours a deep black body under a fawn coloured head, spotty lacing. Attractive smell of dried fruits and roasted bread-like malts. Well blended taste of earthy malts, chocolate, and a bite of dried fruits. Drying, roasted bitter ending. Fine bodied. Good drinking on a Saturday eve. (Tromsø 12.11.2022).

Harviestoun Old Engine Oil Export Stout 6% 500¥ can from Isetan, inky black with a dense tan head of foam with impressive staying power. The aroma is savory soy and cacao. The taste is roasty sweet dark malts with bitter cacao, roasted oats and that umami savory element the aroma promised. Good value Scottish example of the style.

330ml bottle. Quasi black colour with small, creamy, fading, beige head. Roasty and chocolately, slightly bready, dark malty aroma, notes of burnt coffee, pumpernickel, blood, iron. Taste is bitter roasty dark malty and bitter, grassy and minimally metallic hoppy, minimally diluted notes of coffee, some burnt coffee, pumpernickel, blood, iron, rust, subtle residual sweetness, very weak fruity overtones with a touch of blueberry and raspberry and metallic interludes; slightly metallic finish. Watery texture, slightly dry palate, medium, soft carbonation. Quite some subtleties but in a very light and merely suggestive mode, highly drinkable - very, very nice.

Bottle online from Beers Of Europe. Pours a clear light golden colour with a one finger fluffy white head. Aromas of citrus, doughy white bread, biscuits and peppery spice. Taste is again citrusy with lemon and grapefruit, biscuits, herbal notes and lots of peppery spice on the dry hoppy finish. Medium body, average carbonation and oily mouthfeel. Decent summery thirst quencher.

330ml bottle at Taps Beer Bar, Changkat, Kuala Lumpur. Poured almost black in colour with a short-lived, frothy off-white head. The aroma is over ripe red berry fruits, warm boozy alcohol. The flavour is moderate sweet, with a rich, smooth, red berry fruit, earthy, peaty, dry oaky, light warm alcohol bitter palate. Over medium bodied with soft carbonation.
