Bottle thanks to my amazing girlfriend! Bottle labeled at 13.1% abv. Pours with a small, quickly vanishing light brown head. Black body. Good lacing with alcohol legs as well. Aroma of alcohol, chocolate, a bit flowery, with molassas, wet cedar, some tar and liccorice. Taste is a bit of a dissapointment compaired to the smell. Yeasty, some alcohol, chocolate, but not much complexity at all. A bit warming, but not to bad consider the ABV. Syrupy with light carbonation.

Bottle brewed at Nøgne Ø. Black pour with a vigorous dark tan head. Aromas of dark roasted malt, coffee and plummy fruit. Near medium body with heavy, creamy carbonation. Strong bitter coffee, smooth malt, burnt toast. Finish is coffee and burnt bitter, but it’s very nicely done. Everything works quite well together.

Bottle at Casey and Traci’s tasting 01-08-08, cheers you two for a great evening. Pours deep chesnut in colour with white/off white head difficult to tell. Nice fudgey aroma bit creamy with some loose sweet spirity wisps. Taste is toffee apple dipped in sherry or brandy this taste is brought to shuddering halt by the american hop onslaught. Some slick tangerine flavours and a slight numbness in the mouth finish things off, lovely.
