I poured this from the bomber into a snifter.
Deep, deep black with a small mocha head that reduces into nothingness rather quickly. My wife turned up her nose and told me that it looked like I was pouring soy sauce.
Smells of tons of roasty goodness. There is a lot going on here. Malts, hops, alcohol, oak.
The taste is must more abrasive than the nose. You still get all the roasted flavors but the alcohol shows up more than I would like it to. By the time it warms up, the alcohol is really prevalent. It got to the point I stopped drinking it. I would drink this before it got too warm.
Slick, oily mouthfeel, but its not a bad thing. It is just a little too alcoholic to be extremely drinkable.

For me this is a great change of pace beer. I drink mostly light beers but I need a change up after 3 or 4 light beers, one of these stouts is a perfect change. Then back to a few light beers. I love the flavor and everything else about this beer. I know this isn’t the proper wine snob way to rate a beer, I just can’t do that.

On tap at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. Pitch black colour, low brown head. Lovely aroma of oak, roasted malts, dark chocolate and coffee, hints of leather. Roasty flavour, dark malts, coffee, oak, hints of chocolate and liquorice. Nice bitterness in the finish.
