2.7 Drank from a pint glass poured from a twelve ounce bottle. Has some of aromas of malts. Pours black with zero head. Has a nice cris malty flavors a decent brew.

2.8 Negra opaca, dos dedos de espuma ligeramente beige. Aroma frutal y a sirope. Cuerpo medio en un tono general suave muy bebible, aunque quizás demasiado dulzona. De todas formas no está mal.

3.2 Rather malty, lightly sweet, cereal with a bit of earthiness. Smooth but rather unremarkable.

2.4 Canned. 33cl sample. The aroma has roast, grain, some coke, some chocolate. Black coloured beer with a thin head. The taste is sweet and has coke again. Some roast and grain. Initially some metallic hints but they don’t last. Thin body, easy drinking.

2.7 Bottle shared with brian sara and lamont. . Dark pour with brown head... funky akward fruit meh..no thx

2.8 Black thick pour from 12 oz bottle at Emilio's. Thick coffee tar and boozy and sweet. Has a sweet coke and vanilla taste. Really weird. Not bad

2.7 2/28/2010. From bottle. Roasted malt, cereal, dark fruit. Caramel flavor with hints of hops. Smooth and mellow.

2.8 Bona cervesa, és bastant equilibrada i gustosa. Buena cerveza, es bastante equilibrada y sabrosa.

2.4 Bottle 33cl. A clear dark red brown colour with a medium high beige head. A aroma of roasted malt, corn and caramel. The taste is medium sweet and light bitter. An easy to drink beer.

2.4 Bottle. Very cola pour with fizzy tan head. Malty, slightly foul aroma. Doesn’t taste too bad. Malty roasted flavor from start to finish. Beer is pretty mild all around though. Easy drinking.

2.2 Had at Foamfest in Fayetteville. Pours a very dark brown with two fingers of head. Somewhat roast. OK beer.

2.3 Dark, black pour, small beige head. Aroma of sweet roasted malts, metal, and minerals. Viscous mouthfeel, soft carb. Cloying sweet malty finish, with slight roasted malts.

2.3 Ins Glas ergießt sich ein dunkelbraunes Bier mit geringer Schaumkrone. Geruch leicht röstmalzig. Geschmack wässrig, röstmalzig, süß, Karamell.

1.6 Can. Dark brown color with no head. Aroma of tap water with notes of syrup. Sugary taste of malt.

2.8 330ml can. @home 05-03-2014. In short: a watery sweet dark lager. Pours quite dark with frothy tan head. Short head retention, some lacing. Caramle, roasty, metalic aromas. Light body, average carbonation, oily texture. Taste is roasty, caramel, two seet, some liquorice. Watered down.

3.4 Little watery but malty and sweet, smell is also malty sweetness...touch of plum taste...

2.9 330ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours near-black with a big tan head. Aromas of dark sugar and cereal. Taste is more of the same. Not sure what I was expecting really, but underwhelming.

2.5 At Jaleo in Washington DC. Bottle. Poured a dark ruby, cola color with a small off-white head. Aroma was light roasted caramels, sweet malts. Caramel, light nutty chocolate, but mostly very plain and inoffensive. Clean enough to not overpower the meal, but that’s about that. Would probably take this over the other offerings there again.

1.8 Bottle @ home, courtesy of BoostIPA. Thanks Shawn! Pours a clear deep brown / black appearance with a brown head. Olive / veggie, roasty malty, burnt sugar aroma. Twangy, sweet brown sugar, caramel, a touch roasty, chocolate, thin flavor. Not very good.

3.1 330 ml bottle at Fox and hounds, Åbenraa. Dark brown, almost black body with a thin and fast disappearing off-white head. Mild aroma of roasted malt and some liquorice. Flavor has mild, roasted malt, a hint of coffee and liquorice and low bitterness. Medium body and aftertaste. A light, uncomplicated and very refreshing dark lager.

3.5 Appearance: Clear dark brown with ruby highlights and finger thick tan head. Aroma: Corn, slight treacle note, toffee/caramel, bread and a note of dried fruit. Taste: Medium sweetness, low bitter and sourness. Palate: Thick grainy texture, light body, average carbonation, abrupt dry caramel malty finish. Comments: Tasty and slight lace.

2.3 Bottle@crock. Servere black brown. Caramalty no hops. Complex not bad. Good carb. Sweetness rules.

1.9 Dark color tan head. Aroma nuts and wet dog (not joking). Was afraid to taste after smelling, worked up the courage. Not terrible - nuts and cocoa, no hops detectable. A relatively bland beer. I would drink it from the bottle to avoid the bouquet on this one.

2.6 Tasted from bottle. Pours very dark almost black with beige head. Aroma of nuts and caramel. Taste is roasted malts, sweet caramel and some raisins. Faint bitter finish. Medium bodied. Has a sticky sweet mouthfeel. Average beer overall.

2.5 Dark pour some white head. Aroma of malt raisin leather. Tastes the same. Errs on the side of watery. Like a more palatable weaker Baltic porter. A fine beer for consumption in nonbeery areas.

2.6 Bottled, 330ml, a gift from Bill, many thanks. Almost black with brownish head. Quite a sweetish, fruity beer with a smooth caramel note along with blackberry notes. Medium palate, perhaps a little syrupy but really not bad at all. Feeling a little disloyal to Gibraltar by having this at present.

2.8 08-JUL-2013, can @hotel room in Salou, Spain. Dark, dark brown with low grey’ish head. Roasted aroma with coffee. Taste the same with some caramel as well. Creamy, soft carbonation, a touch of milky sweetness. A little hoppy bitterness on the finish. OK drink.

2.9 Can. Pours a very dark beer with a small brown head on top. Almost a black beer, some brownish notes. Aroma is very malty, tints of chocolate and slight roast. Flavor is sweetish and malty. Short finish, decent dunkel.

3.5 Bottle. Deep dark color with a nice light tan head. Aroma was a slight nutty toast aroma with undertones of chocolate and molasses. Flavor was a toast malt flavor that was sweet but in a pleasant way.

2.8 Bottle; poured a dark cola brown with a light brown head. Aroma was sweet and a touch malty, but nothing really going on. Flavor was sweet, watery and fairly bland. Some fruit, caramel and nuts. Forgettable.
