Comment:

re-rated 9-2009 - dark black coloured with no head retention; roasted malty aroma with notes of coffee, prune and licorice; low carbonation and a medium malt body; sweet and bitter, a bit sticky; very long chocolatey and coffeish finish with moderate warming alcohol notes

7-2005 - dark, almost black colour with on its surface nothing more than big brown-tainted bubbles; immediately after pouring, strong coffeeish notes hit the nose, dark chocolate, raisins and a solid kick of hops are also present; very oily mouthfeel with a strong sweetness and a robust malt body, a powerful bitterness appears in the dry finish accompanied by a long warming alcohol punch - waouhh ! this is a delicious and very dangerous stuff !
