[1] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer many times. (5/24/2006 4:19:45 PM)
"Black with a big bubbly pale brown head. Lovely smooth and very intense aroma of roasted coffee, chocolate, anise, dried plums with some tar notes. Thick and very offensive mouthfeel. Flavour of loads off coffee, chocolate and dried dark fruit. Also some smoky notes of tar and licorice. Loooooong fruity, smokey and roasty finish which seems to last forever.."

[3] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (8/25/2005 4:34:55 PM)
"330 ml bottle, ABV is 9.0%. Very dark reddish brown colour, nearly black. Excellent large and thick brown head. Lovely roasty aroma with strong notes of dark chocolate. Flavour is very roasty with strong notes of coffee, also some chocolate but not very sweet. Bitter finish, it’s hard to tell how much of the bitterness comes from the roastiness and how much from the hops - obviously both elements are plentiful. A first class imperial stout!"

[4] Review by Bov from Bienne, Switzerland who has tried this beer once. (6/15/2005 6:49:14 AM)
"black colour, fine brown-tainted head and a nice lacing, complex nose, strong coffeish aroma, pastries and plum, roasted with some notes of alcohol, oily and bitter, very long aftertaste of black chocolate and coffee - very balanced, subtle with a strong character at the same time - this is a great beer"
