Bottle from Khioskh, Copenhagen. Pours pitch black with a big beige head. Brown slightly burnt suger, chocolate fudge and liquer. The taste is fullbodied and potent, sweet, slightly vinous with a little bitterness that lingers on the tongue. Like a liquid desert. Wonderful.

An average lager at best, but note the higher alcohol content. Reminiscent of a Bass Ale, but has a very watery mouthfeel and no aftertaste, Might be better suited for the Indian Ocean climate where it was brewed for, and enjoyed as a decent summer quencher.

330ml bottle poured into a snifter. Pours black with about a finger of dark tan head. Aroma of chocolate and caramel. Taste is light bitter. Chocolate and caramel. Medium bodied with a surprisingly thin texture. Soft carbonation and a long finish. Overall, pretty good. I would be happy to drink this again.

330 ml. bottle poured in to a snifter, 8,8 % alc. Pitch black with a small, off-white head. Sweet aroma with roasted malts, honey and liquorice, the English yeasts shows as a light doughy note. Taste is sweet and roasted. Medium to full bodied with a creamy to thick texture -almost "velvet-like". Long lasting finish with roasted malts, honey, chocolate and liquorice. Excellent stout far from the "beer epicentres" in Europe and N. America. No wonder Mr. Jackson recommend this one on the back label...

Bottle from Deeside Drinks Emporium. It pours pretty much black, with a thick beige head. The nose is smoke, coffee, roasted malt and charcoal. The taste is roasted malt, caramel, smoke, charcoal, chocolate, coffee, ash, some bitterness and a touch of alcohol warmth, with a nice bite in the finish. Medium body, moderate carbonation and velvety mouth-feel. Flavoursome, well balanced and hides the alcohol well. Great stuff.
