Bomber from Jeremy. Not much of a pop. Dark brown pour, wispy head, calm. Aroma is woody, nutty, leather, hint of chocolate, light boozy notes. Taste is sweet, then a brief blast of booze, tailing off to a sticky, woody, nutty finish. Holding up very well.
Pours very dark brown, very close to black. Small ring of tanned foam. Smell is spice ( cinnamon , perhaps some kardamom ) taste is sharp, bit roasty, spices are much milder than expected. Mild oxidation. Mild spices in the back.
Bottle brought by la li. Fresh grain, grain mill dust, roasted malts, soft coffee, red fruits. Soft, lots of flavours, balanced. Exceptional.
Pre-gbbf-shinding. Dunkel orange braunes Bier mit mittelgroßen beigen Schaumkrone. Geruch nach minze, dunkles malz, Lakritze, wenig schokoladig. Geschmack süß Röstmalzig, minze, viel Lakritze, schokoladig, gut!
Bottle thanks to Ryan while we waited at ABC for ADWTD release: Poured a motor oil black with a creamy brown head. Aroma was coco and malts. Taste was a complex mix of dark fruit, coco, and robust malts. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
Bottle - Vintage 2012 - Sweet dark sugars, dates, chocolate and a nice roasty note. Deep jet black with a nice brown head. Dark roasty chocolate, dates, dark fruit and a nice long rich finish. Very nice.
This was the big beer stout that I was expecting. Has a hint of autolysis, old hops, bitter. Chocolate syrup. Bitter malts in the flavor. More chocolate syrup in flavor again. Maybe I get some light spices coming out. After this one I stopped rating, they were way more similar than different.

Sampled from a 0.65l bottle @ Top Hops (BA) Bottle Share. A deep dark almost black one with a nice deep brown sidesticking top. Lots of deep dark caramel sweetness in the nose, some spiciness also. I get thick chocolate, cocoa and roasted malts. So nice. It's really smooth on the tongue this. A little bit of alcohol voice, dark malts with tarmac, dark fruits and roasted malts before I get hints of licorice and even a little bit of gunpowder in the finish and aftertaste. Yeah, this is just fantastic. 15.06.2013
