Tap at Craft Beer Bar Yokohama. Dark brown, golden head. Aroma is roasty bit chocolate, coriander herbal, quite sweet. Taste is nice, herby, perfumey, nice roast, like a weird black ipa. Floral, and pretty nice.

2016 re-rate: Tap at Gremlin. Big roasted malt aromas with some dark roasted coffee in the background. Medium body, but a little thinner than I remember it seems. Roasted, bitter finish that is borderline astringent. Seems to have gotten more one-dimensional that it was a few years back. On tap at Beer Bar North Island. Served in a half pint shaker. Coffee black with a minimal off-white head. Wonderful lacing the whole way down the glass. Corriander, nutmeg and coffee notes on the nose. Toasted malts, and charred vegetable comes out as well. Somewhat creamy mouthfeel. Complex finish with hints of sweetness along with the aforementioned bitterness. A very unique beer. --- Beer merged from original tick of North Island Coriander Black on 30 Mar 2015 at 15:00 - Score: 8

Draft - A bit herbal, coffee and some roast malts. Pitch black with a thin brown head. Dark malts and a vegetal herbal quality, coriander? Not sure, as I know i am looking for it and not sure what I am getting along with the roast. It is a vegetal bitterness though which I don’t thin overall make for a good beer.

Dark with a tan head. Roasted malts, sweet malt, some cocoa, and just a hint of coriander in the aroma. Flavor is much like a stron schwarzbier with light coriander spicing. Very nice. (Draught at Keg, Nagoya)

Was a bit hammered when I had this, so notes arent exceptional. Lots of coriander in nose. Sweet coriander mouth. Roasted malty finish.

A black ale, something like a Scottish black, with coriander and a bit of cinnamon as well as some wheat. Pitch black with a tall, fine, frothy head that quickly went to a nice lace. Aroma of coriander, creamy roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. Well burnt, with a slight bit of sweetness. Creamy, with chocolate malt, coriander, hops, and a touch of sour fruit. Great balance. Roasted, sweet and sour finish. Excellent and extremely original and interesting.
