Draught at Cafe Sånn, shared with Finn. A few patches on the surface of a near coal black body, scattered lacing. Attractive on the nose with lightly spiced dark fruits and malts. Well blended taste of chocolate-caramel joined by dried fruits and some Yuletide spices, oaky backbone. Smoothly roasted ending with warmth from the alcohol. Well bodied. Quite great slow sipper qualities. (Tromsø, 13.01.2026).

440ml can. Almost black with a dense tan head. Aroma of dark malts, liquorice, chocolate, light roast. Taste of chocolate, dark malts, liquorice, roast malts, hint of vanilla, hops in the background, bittersweet. Medium bodied. Good.
London Black is a modern classic of the style but this "bold twist" doesn't really improve on it.

Sample, thanks oh6gdx! Hazy coppery amber, rich lively head. Piney lime aroma. Sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Syrup and lime, pine mango. Sticky, mildly resinous finish.

Can 33 cl. Pours a clear amber with a lacing, off-white head. Slightly nutty, caramelly nose. Light body, some wort accents before an unpleasant chemical and metallic nose sets in. No bitterness and no pleasure. 040126

Pale, hazy and yellowish with a frothy, white head. Aroma of papaya and citrus. Taste is very mildly bitter and a touch citric. Body to the light side of medium, watery texture. Could be a little more assertive, but quite drinkable.

(Bottle) Black colour with brief, foamy, brown head. Malty, roasted, vinous nose with dark chocolate, cacao, strong black coffee, vanilla, a touch of smoke, treacle, raisins and rum. Malty, roasted, vinous taste with notes of cacao, chocolate truffles, oak wood, rum, raisins, dried figs, vanilla, sweet espresso, treacle and a balanced cacao bitterness in a warming finish. Mild chilli heat. Full body, quite sweet. Strong and powerful, still well balanced with a smooth rum character. Great beer!
