Djævlebryg Pride Of Nekron
Editor’s note: Previously brewed by Djævlebryg at Brøckhouse, Hillerød, Denmark.
English: This beer is worthy of the Dark Lord. In both smell and taste it is a true orgy of the senses: Burnt, bitter and sweet. Savory and warming, full bodied and complex. Pride of Nekron is simply put a majestic meal in itself.

Via trade with Douglas88. The aroma is licorice, roast, bitte chocolate. The appearance I deep black, tan head. Oily lacing on glass. The flavor is roast, licorice, bitter chocolate. The finish is rost, pine, long lasting, and astringent. Thick in body. Good. Palate better than flavor and aroma.
0,33 flaske (batch PON 002, bb. judgement day), delt med skibsrederen: svart og med brunt skum som ikke gir seg. Tett aroma kvalitetskaffe med lekker syrlighet (appelsinnog aprikos). Smud smak følger opp. Dette er raske leker (lekre saker)! Han steike, djævelsk god, som en nordlending ville sagt.
Bottle shared with JMD at HNB. Almost black. Dense and persisten brown head. Aroma of black malt, coffe, pine and yeast. Fine taste, with surprisingly good drinkability. Dry mouthfeel.
Svart med høyt brunt skum. Lukter kaffe, sjokolade. Mest kaffe preg. Fyldig med ganske kraftig kaffesmak.
Svart med høyt lys brunt skum. Store gjærklumper... Kaffe, kakao, mørke frukter og mørk sjokoladelukt. Salt og bitter smak av lakris og mørk sjokolade og kaffe. Medium kullsyre.
Bottle from Plovmand, thanks! Big coffee, chocolate and roast, one of the most roasted beers I’ve had. Is there any coal among the ingredients? Oh, there isn’t. But there are syrups. Raisin syrup and black syrup. And oh boy, is this one syrupy. I like the raisin addition in the aroma that sways it in the direction of Baltic porters, but it fails to impress tastewise. It is just not integrated in any way. There you have the intense roast on one hand, it pierces your tongue mercilessly. And then you have that raisny, syrupy sweetness that just goes a separate way, failing to balance the whole. As a result, it is a horribly sweet, horribly roasted and artificially raisiny beer. Unfortunately.
27.12.2014. 0,33l Bottle. Vinmonopolet Haugesund. Black colour with dark brown head. Intense dark with aromas of dark malts, sweet coffee and cocoa. Mederate bitter, and that goes well to the sweetness from the malt. Very smooth, soft and plessant beer. The strength of the alcohol is so well hidden that I dont notice it. Veeeery good beer.

Svart farve med beige skum. Lukt av røstet malt, sjokolade, kaffe og lakris. Smak av røstet malt, sjokolade, kaffe og lakris. Vinmonopolet.
DWG; Bottle 33 cl. Best before Judgement Day. Batch PON002. Pours perfect black with a large, frothy to creamy, lasting and lacing tan head. Nosetrils fills with intense roasted malt, dark chocolate and tobacco, smoke, bread, licorice and dark dried fruit. Taste is heavy sweet and light bitter with a sweet syrup, warming and lasting, licorice finish. Body is full, texture is sticky thick, carbonation is flat.
Coffee, cocoa, nuts, dried fruits and leather in the aroma. Almost black with a tan head. Medium to heavy sweet and medium bitter. Full body with a average to soft carbonation. Overall a really nice Imperial Stout with lots of flavour and some warming alcohol.
Svart med finfin høyde på det lett brunlig skummet. Forlokkende aroma av kaffe, røstet malt, mildt av lakris og mildt av sjokolade. Smaken byr på lær, kaffe, mørk sjokolade og lakris. Noe alkohol også. Litt tørr. Svakt sur, litt søt og medium bitter. Bittersøt mørk sjokolade i ettersmaken. Tykk/medium konsistens.
Espuma de fácil formación de color tostado claro de no mucha duración pero manteniendo hasta el final una fina capa. Aroma con notas a maltas tostadas y quemadas, fruta madura, chocolate negro, y ligeramente a coco. Sabor ligeramente dulce, con maltas asadas, regaliz, cacao y caramelo tostado. El final se aprecia con cierto amargor muy poco duradero que torna a dulzor en el retrogusto, con cierto picor preveniente del alcohol, ligeramente cremosa al paladar.
Bottle from batch PON001.
Pours like a RIS should, more like syrup than beer. Nice looking head, between latte and mocka, but head retention is short. Smells lovely, a lot of roasted and burnt flavors, coffe, chocolate, bread. Once you have a mouthfull, there’s more from where that came from, but also some vanilla and licorice. Sweet early that fades into a bitter finish. After a few mouths, the ABV is more apparent, but not in a bad way. Enjoyed it a lot. Wish I knew how long it has been aging, but with a best before judgement day it’s not easy to tell.

Where: SBWF 2014.

Doft av tjära, lakrits, mörktbröd. Beige tjock och fin skumkrona. Mörk som natten. Tjock och rund i munnen. Söt med smak av alkohol, kaffe. Lämnar en viss beska. Väldigt mastig. Helt ok men du dricker bara en.
33cl bottle @El Lúpulo Feroz, Oviedo. 19-01-2014.
In short: a light creamy Imp. Stout.
Pours very dark with nice tan head. Poor head retention, scattered lacing. Creamy, vanilla, roasty, chocolate aromas. Medium body, soft carbonation, silky texture. Taste is smooth, chocolate, some coffee, vanilla, roasted notes. Sweet lingering aftertaste.
Flaska. Svart öl med medelstort moccafärgat skum. Dofter av kaffe, mörk choklad och lakrits. Detsamma återfinns i smaken där en viss surhet fyller på, något som inte är en fördel. Mjuk och fin munkänsla. Stor kropp.
Bottle. Opaque black liquid with medium ran head. Aroma of chocolate, butter, pine, coffee, light licorice and light ash. Taste is light sweet and light bitter with notes of chocolate, coffee and pine. Medium to full bodied with medium carbonation. Pretty good.
33 cl, flaske, 10,5 % ABV, købt i Kvickly Allerød, 31. juli 2014.
Sort ufiltreret olie med meget flot 3-4 cm tyk tætskummende og moccafarvet skumkrone. Skummet daler til en fin kant på 1/2 cm tykkelse.
Aromaen indbefatter duftindtryk som lakrids, tjære, kælder, chokolade, ristet malt og røg.
Smagen er fantastisk - sådan skal en Imperial Stout med stort S smage! Let surhed/syrlig, kraftig bitter, og svag/let sødme. Let salt oveni.
Smagsbilledet starter salt og bittert, dernæst kommer sødmen ind og holder det bitre i hånden, hvorefter indtrykket slutter kraftig bittert og alkolholvarmt af. En bitterhed på grænsen til det beske.
I munden er der tale om en fyldig og kraftig krop med en klæbrig konsistens. Kuldioxid indholdet er perfekt tilpasset i et under medium niveau. Eftersmagen er tør og lang.
Virkelig god øl! Svært at sige, hvad den mangler, hvis der er noget...
The aroma is of alcohol, dark malt and hints of coffee. Distinctive coffee taste and dark chocolate. A heavy bitterness that fills the mouth forever. A great Imperial Stout, but feels like it’s missing something just to reach perfection. Follow me @ Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.
Flaska från SB. Smörklick är det första jag känner. Därefter framträder tobak och gummifabrik. Lite för söt smak. Besvikelse.
Pours like any other imperial stout, a bit longer lasting head. Nose is superb! Burnt sugar, chocolate, roasted malt, raw liquorice and raisins. Taste is mostly bitter but some roasted notes aswell. Body could be thicker with more sweetness. Not complex but very nice indeed.
