UPDATED: NOV 24, 2021 notes of roasty, caramel, woody, and vanilla. black, tan foam, medium sweetness, lightly bitter, full body, soft carbonation, slightly astringent. A very nice beer.

UPDATED: OCT 22, 2021 Draught at Carlsens Kvarter Opaque black with a dark brown head. Incredibly intense aroma of cocoa, chocolate, and lactose. Intense, wonderful, and deep taste. Starts off very roasted, deep notes of coffee, complimented by figs, brown sugar. Vanilla might play a role in the balance, but I cannot pick it out. Deep and oily texture. Very nice and a definite recommendation. 10-5-9-5-18

UPDATED: JUL 16, 2021 Bottle at Skænkestuen, Assens. Black with a small brown head. Aroma: Coffee. Lots of coffee. Malt, dark chocolate and hints of vanilla. Taste: Toasted bitterness and some sweetness. Big mouthfeel

UPDATED: JUL 15, 2020 330ml bottle. Jet black colour with late awakening, average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, tan head. Sweet-ish, fruity hoppy, slightly roasty, dark malty and minimally spicy aroma, notes of coffee, some orange, vanilla, a touch of toffee, minimally waxy hopy overtones; absurdely a slight muesli character (fruit and cereals) overall. Taste is sweet-ish, minimally sugary, dark malty, fruity hoppy, notes of coffee, hints of dark chocolate, orange, a touch of toffee, vanilla; well hidden alcohol. Creamy texture, smooth and soft palate, soft, foamy carbonation. Well crafted, not really harmonious.

UPDATED: OCT 25, 2019 Black beer with a short brownish head with big bubbles. Aromas of ground coffee, dark choc, vanilla, roasted and licorice. Not too cold, the taste is roasted, with toast and coffee, licorice, vanilla, the whole with full-bodied and intense bitter. The final falls a little, notes of alcohol and fruity. Fat beer but without excess sweet.

UPDATED: SEP 4, 2019 On tap @Ølbaren - Aarhus Streetfood. Pours deep, clear red. With small head. Scent: Chocolate and coffee. Taste: Coffee bitterness, little vanilla aftertaste. Texture: Little creamy, medium carbonation.

UPDATED: SEP 2, 2019 Bottle from Gedeelde Vreugde, Sint-Niklaas - many thanks, Anke! Pours hazy black with a lasting, small, foamy, beige head. Aroma of chocolate powder, mocha, 'raw' vanilla, toast, black pepper, fig, macadamia. Taste is light to medium malty sweet, chocolate & biscuit with a subtle touch of vanilla, quite bitter coffee & fondant chocolate next to toasty & herbal accents, black tea-like, vaguely umami, dim sourish fruits underneath. Dryish, toasty, earthy hoppy finish, more chocolate, coffee roast & 'raw' vanilla, a bit woody, hidden alcohol (coffee liqueur). Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Lots of different flavours going on but in the end not very intense. Vanilla remains subtle.

UPDATED: JUN 9, 2019 Kolor prawie czarny z rubinowym prześwitem u podstawy czaszy kieliszka. Piana jasno brązowa, wysoka na około 2 cm nietrwała. Topnieje do cienkiego kożucha. W aromacie kawa z jej palonością, delikatna słodycz, podobnie odrobina słodkiej wanilii i orzechów. Smak: tutaj podobnie, kawa i typowa dla niej paloność, wanilia mieszająca się z akcentami orzechowymi i migdałowymi i znowu kawa. Tutaj czuje się zmielone ziarna kawy, które dodatkowo zaakcentowane są goryczką, właśnie o palonym, kawowym charakterze. Dobrze ukryty alkohol to duży plus. Wysycenie średnie do niskiego. pełnia raczej średnia.

UPDATED: MAY 4, 2019 deep dark Brown, almost black colour, huge, dense beige-ish head, which lasts for several minutes; aroma of coffee, roasted nuts, dark chocolate, ash, some licorice, dark berries and slight vanilla notes; taste of intensive roastedness (coffee and nuts), some dark berries and maybe minimal vanilla;not bad at all, though its taste is far less complex than expected based onthe aroma

UPDATED: APR 14, 2019 In der Nase schön röstig und schokoladig. Im Trunk dann schön vollmundig, Cremeschoko, Mokka, Desertbier, sehr lecker.
