A black beer with a fine oil brown head. The aroma is sweet and roasted. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted bread. A lovely beer.

Perfumed and citric hop nose. Pale straw color, low creamy head. Agressive flowery and perfumed hops. Tastes a bit like barbies dreamhouse looks. Lightbodied, kind of flat.

Straw colour. Spicy, herbal hop aroma. Light body, hearty bitterness, long dry finish and just a hint of sweet pale malts.

A vigorous pour produced a nice thick head of medium brown which coated the glass and ran off in sheets rather than breaking into a lace. The head disappated quickly, but gave off aromas of licorice, raisins and Scotch Whisky. Complex flavor. Sweet, smoky, not too bitter. A touch of sourness in the aftertaste. Lighter on the tongue than I would have guessed from the name. Interesting and enjoyable.

Bottle Pours very dark. Black with red highlights Virtually no head, barely enough to make any lacing at all. You can really smell the Whiskey barrells in this one. Very sweet, molassas, cherry maybe also. Taste is great. Sweet, coffee, molassas, brown sugar, little if any hops dark but not charcoalish. The whiskey cask flavor really comes through here too. Feel is soft and easy. No bite to it. Just nice. Terriffic brew. Glad I can get it around here.

Bottle Pours very dark, nearly black with a small deep tan head. Very little lacing as well. Looks like a stout. Served it to cold maybe.Aroma is of sweet dark chocolate and grape jelly. Coffe as well but the sweetnes barely lets it out. Taste is coffee, licorice and burnt wood up front, then the coffee and charcoal comes through. Lacking the harsh bitterness of dry or imperial stouts. Palate is awsome. Feels like it should pour like motor oil. Thick heavy smooth. Little or no bitter aftertaste. Very yummy. Like a sweet porter.

Flowery hop nose with some fruitiness - bitter with a twist all right, with a lovely, light, bready, slightly sweet maltiness that balances well - dry and quite drinkable - good but not great.

Hazy blond color. Very nice and original aroma: malt, hop, fruits and flowers, weeds from wild fields as I remember from my childhood; a bit cheesy. Malty with a very nice bitterness (aromatic as well). Is this a lager? I want more!

Tapped @Beer Hunters, Pori
Amber color with small but steady creamy head. Aroma is grassy hops. Freshing hop bitterness, balanced palate with bitter aftertaste. Welldone IPA but a bit watery.

Sampled cask conditioned at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.
Pale golden, slightly hazy, rich head. Rich aroma of citrus and hay. Dry and light bodied with soft and light mouthfeel. Hoppy finish with good bitterness. Thirst quenching. Another to top effort from the Dollar brewery.
