Apperance: A very dark brown, nearly black beer, a beige head that settles slowly and leaves good lacing. (4)
Aroma: The smell is rich and complex, licorice, burnt candy, sour drops, a metallic sharpness with grapefruit and flowers. (4.5)
Flavor: The taste is a little less complex, an initial short sweetness like dark bread, burnt notes, bitter grapefruity things, juice, peel and seed. (4)
Palate: The carbonation is medium, a fresh feeling, a dry finish. (4)
Overall: Well brewed, a good beer, to enjoy by itself or with some chocolate cake. (4)
