33cl bottle from kevnic2008, many thanks! Pours opaque dark golden colour with a huge good lasting white head. Aroma of bitter hopy, mild fruits, nuts, toasted malt. Taste is mild hoppy, earthy, nuts, toasted malt, mild fruits.

Pours a cloudy yellow color with a fluffy white head. Hoppy, citrus aroma. Refreshing hoppy summer beer. Dangerously drinkable.

*Old rating. Best before 20.03.12. The beer is fresh and smooth. Malty, hints of grain, fresh and smooth. Nice round aftertaste with hints of caramel. Nice.

bottle. Hazy oprange-golden colour, tall and creamy white head. Fruity nose. Light-bodied, shy malty start with good aromatic fruity hops. Light and refreshing with a pleasant fruity character.

Bottle. Pale gold with a large white head. Aroma is hop and yeast. Flavour is bready malt, a little spice on a crisp herbal finish.

Trübe rötlichbraune Farbe, ordentliche beige Schaumkrone. Geruch röstmalzig, viel Karamell, reife Früchte. Geschmack röstmalzig, viel Karamell, Vanille, gering floral und wenig würzig.

bottle from Bièrerie Illkirch-Graffenstaden. For a good selection of craft beer, including German craft beer, my only chance is to drive to France, because most of the local Getränkemärkte don’t stock fancy stuff. Anyway - deep brown, almost black, hazy, with a creamy beige head. Chocolatey nose and flavours with some freshly ground coffee and some dried fruit. Good.

Thanks to bartlebier! Who generously traded this for one token @ BBF 2014. 330 ml. green swing-top bottle enjoyed on the train post-BBF 2014. Also I have never seen so many people drink on a trains as I did then. The couple across me brought a plastic bag containing about 14 Heineken Jillz’s & proceeded to drink them all together in 30 min. or so. A big group of rowdy Americans spend that trip drinking one after another bottle of BAB Mystère. On the next stop these people were joined by several people sharing bottles of hard liquor. I must have finally taken found & taken that train to Alcoholism city. Anyway……………… BBF 04.05.2015. Red fruits dark brown, huge mocha head. Nose is light iron, cheap chocolate truffles, chocolate, mocha,… Lightly herbal taste, vending machine coffee, lightly metal, chocolate syrup malts, basic sweetness, light herbal bitterness in the finish. Body is a touch fizzy, somewhat thin. Decent & rather enjoyable all the same. I quite liked it. Nice beer, just don’t compare it to American stouts.

Bottle @ Van Moll Brewpub. Medium to dark red - brown color, average to medium sized beige head. Smell malts, a little musty, brown or dark malts. Taste malts, dark malts, bitter, something weird. Average body and carbonation. Aroma gets worse and after after while it really smells bad. No, ’black forest stout’ is not a very good ’porter’ imo.
