25.4 ounce bottle, bought by me nearly a decade ago, poured into a stemmed tulip ale glass.
Rich brown color body capped by 3f height of caramel khaki tan colored lasting foam. Lacing clouds.
The aroma began with strong licorice that dropped quickly and wasn’t part of the flavor. Clean dark malt with touches of chocolate and coffee aroma.
Mostly malt flavor with a bit of earthy and woody hops.
Slightly fizzy feel from the highly carbonated foam head. Body is the soft side of medium. A bit of sweetness and hops.
It looks good an drinks nicely.

Poured from a 750 ml. bottle which had the following on the label:
"Hats should be removed before drinking!"
Moderate pour yields a huge tan head which caught me off guard! Dark brown body with nice lacing. Nose of dark malt, roasted malt, bittersweet chocolate, and dark chocolate. Taste of all kinds of chocolate, but leaning towards the unsweetened end of the chocolate spectrum. Good, slightly silky, feel; and overall a nice offering from Mikkeller brewed and bottled at De Proef. Cheers!

Look - brown in color with a slight ruby hue, khaki head, and decent retention and lacing.
Smell - hops hit hard in the form of citrus and pine, but these aromas transition into coffee, chocolate, and sweet caramel malts a second later. The nose on this is really impressive and complex.
Taste - again, hops are super strong, especially for the style, with citrus and pine notes dominating. Nothing else really hits, but there are some underlying notes of caramel and chocolate lingering in the background.
Feel - good carbonation, medium body, and slightly creamy.

33cl bottle. Clear dark ruby-brown pour with a medium height beige head. Notes of citrus hops, metal, lightly roasted malts, some pine hops, light dark chocolate. Medium body, high carbonation and a bitter, refreshing finish.
