yngwie (20302) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - FEB 21, 2021UPDATED: FEB 21, 2021 Bottle, 75cl. An unclear brown beer with a minimal sized off-white head. That might not sound very inviting, but actually it did look nice. The aroma had toffee, dark chocolate, alcohol, coffee, roasted malt and a boozy touch. It's full-bodied, faintly acidic, dry, bitter and lightly warming, sort of sweetish, but not cloying, with flavors of dark chocolate, some coffee, roasted malts, wood, alcohol and some toasted bread. Lasting finish. A delicious sipper, complex, powerful and sure shareable. 201231

radagast83 (11245) - Arlington, Virginia, USA - OCT 25, 2020UPDATED: OCT 25, 2020 Poured a very dark cola color with a small off-white head. Aroma was super boozy woody tobacco. Tootsie roll, some white chocolate. Lots of boozy malt finish. Bottle at the DC area socially distant Fall 2020 tasting, then consumed the rest of the bottle in subsequent days. I think the beer improved after a few days, letting it warm up a bit before consuming.
