330ml bottle, kindly shared by djoeye. Black as pitch in the glass, shiny naked surface, spotty lacing. Inviting smell of dark malts, slightly peaty, and dark fruits. Similar taste of mid-sweet dark malts and dark fruits on a smoked backbone. Malty sweetness to the ending added by a peaty twist. Nice, but too sweet for a better score. (Rating session with Imojoh, djoeye and Finn, Tromsø 15.04.2020).

Spandert av djoeye. Delt med ham, lmojoh og Rune i WCveien. Svart. Lavt mokkafarget skum. God sjokoladearoma. Hint av røyk. Silkemyk munnfølelse. Smaken balansert. Sjokolade & lakris. God fylde.

Nutty and sweet, creamy and caramelly. Pretty good. #vr_beer_porn

Gedronken met Tomhendriksen tijdens bierfestival. Het pistach groene bier ziet er niet echt aantrekkelijk uit. De geur is zoet, kiwi en sinaasappel. De smaak is fruitig en eveneens snoepachtig zoet met een nasmaak van snoep en fruit.

Almost clear dark amber brown beer, tiny pale tan head. Smooth light palate, mildly soft, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft creamy malts. A decent raspberry vibe here, bright but with some pippy bitterness. Mild vanilla. Floral raspberry. Cheesecake? Maybe a little tangy vanilla. Finishes smooth with a little tingling spice. Most entertaining.

330ml bottle. Clear, orangey golden colour with huge, frothy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy hoppy and wheaty malty aroma, hints of lemongrass and lemon, some lemon balm. Taste is minimally sweet, wheaty malty and citrusy hoppy, notes of lemongrass, hints of lemon drops, lemon, some lemon balm, some unspecific tropical fruitiness. Oily texture, prickly carbonation. Nice, refreshing composition.

330ml bottle, thanks MonsterMagnet for this! Deep dark brown appearance, creamy off-white head. Enticing nose encompassing strong coconut shavings, creamy chocolate and caramel, continuing nicely to taste with a sumptuously rich desert-like character, good coconut and chocolate representation. Right up my street. Excellent.
Yup, Irish coffee. Nicely creamy, very smooth, but a tad alcoholic (as it probably should be). Lots of coffee, of course, some chocolate and a bit of whiskey flavours going through nicely. Quite sweet, not very complex, but tasty and what was promised.
