3.5 Горький шоколад, кофе, интересное пиво, но по мне не хватило полнотелости. Ароматика слабовыражена.
4.2 Também senti mais o café do que chocolate, mas muito boa cerveja.
3.6 Old rating from 2013 - 500ml bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aromas & tastes of chocolate, coffee, bread & roasted malts. Medium body. Slightly bitter finish
4.0 440ml can. Pours a deep brown with strong light brown head. Soft dark malts and lactose on the nose. Full body with rich dark malts, soft chocolate, and hints of coffee. Excellent beer.

3.8 Grym! Smakrik, fyllig och välbalanserad stout! Klass
3.6 Dark brown with a dark tan head. In a nutshell - stout mixed with chocolate milk. Somewhat silky mouthfeel, rich yet light. At a nice halfway point between bitter and sweet. Chocolate aroma predominates with charred notes and a hint of butterscotch.
4.2 Cerveza muy oscura, de color negro con tintes marrón oscuro. Espuma densa, de color marfil y muy persistente. Aroma intenso a malta tostada, con notas a café y chocolate. El sabor sigue la línea del aroma, malta tostada muy agradable (nada de torrefacto), chocolate negro y café con leche. De cuerpo pleno y carbonatación media. Consigue un pefecto equilibrio entre dulzor y amargor.
3.6 Can. Opaque black with brownish head. The aroma has notes of roast, dark bread, cold coffee, ash, earthy, burnt. The flavor is mild sweet and bitter with notes of roast, burnt, ash, dark bread, coffee. Slightly dry, medium-bodied.
4.0 Pitch black with a beige head. Aroma is roasted malts. Taste is dark chocolate, subtle bitterness.
2.1 Average
5.0 One of the best! What an amazing colour, what an amazing foam! Like a real gem! It's a balanced stout, not too sweet, not too bitter, chocolate, coffee, vanilla, dark fruits dominates the taste. It's extremely creamy, like a pudding or a cake. Amazing. Can't get enough!
3.7 500ml bottle. Pours dark brown, creamy, stable beige head. Aroma of dark chocolate, vanilla, cocoa, coffee. Moderately sweet, roasted, chocolate, mocha, vanilla, nuts, brown sugar. Medium-bodied, oily, smooth, moderate carbonation. Very nice.
4.0 As I write this the beer has the most ratings for an English beer and yet I've only just found it at the bottom of a supermarket shelf. Must be more of an export. Pours black, small beige head, good retention. Nice aroma of roasted malts and chocolate, not overpowering. Taste is quite sweet, with chocolate, a hint of coffee, dark fruits. A lovely creamy mouthfeel without being cloying. Low to moderate carbonation works well. A moderate bitterness in the finish. The balance is good. This is a lovely flavoursome easy drinking chocolate stout.
4.0 Botella, servida en jarra en casa acompañando una cata de quesos.
3.0 A passable stout, but where do they hide the chocolate.
2.6 Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
3.5 Tumman ruskea lasissa. Tuoksussa on maltaan viljaisuutta ja hieman suklaata. Mausta löytyy pehmeästi suklaata, tummaa mallasta sekä hieman paahdetta. Suutuntuma on alkoholimäärään nähden ymmärrettävästi hieman ohut.
4.3 0.5 nitro can. Fiatalos lila fehér dobozban egy nitrogén golyóról egy puding sűrűségű fekete sör bugyog elő. A színe csodás fekete, a kitöltés maga egy élmény ahogy képződik a szép krémes egyujjnyi hab. Csodaszép. Illata mint egy klasszikus fekete eszpresszó csokival. Az íze szintén. Jóval krémesebb a többi hasonló stoutnál. De legalább annyira kávés. A krémes hab mindvégig ott van. Kevés szénsav, tényleg jó élemény. Különleges és finom! Ajánlom a stílus kedvelőinek! *** In a youthful purple white box, a pudding of density black beer bursts out of a nitrogen ball. The color is wonderful black, the filling itself is an experience as it forms a beautiful creamy one-finger foam. Beautiful. It smells like a classic black espresso with chocolate. The taste too. Much creamier than other similar stouts. But at least so much coffee. The creamy foam is there all the time. Low carbon, really good experience. Special and delicious! I recommend it to fans of style!
3.2 26Ranch. Suave con toques de chocolate negro
3.3 Black colour, tan head. Aroma: dark chocolate, roasted malt, cream, cacao, cookies, cacao nibs, some plums. Taste: roasted malt, bitter coffee, cacao, dark chocolate, plums. A little flat body.
2.7 Ok chokladsmak men för blaskig och för mkt kolsyra
4.2 A fabulous chocolate stout Not over sweet Chocolate essence and cocoa with a good balance stout Available in bottle version
3.1 Bitter
4.0 Fabulous chocolate and malty aroma, pours near black with a lovely frothy tan head. Flavour has sweet chocolate to the fore, some dark fruits and dry bitterness rounding off, hints of coffee coming through also. Mildly carbonated so not a completely creamy mouthfeel, the bitterness and sweet chocolate balance out nicely in the aftertaste
5.0 Best beer I’ve ever had. Nothing but smooth chocolate flavours for days!
3.1 Had this 10 years ago at Pivkan beer celebration hosted by DPP (Beer Lover Society Croatia) but I lost the notes. Bought a 0.44 l nitro can from Vrutak, shared with little Dina. Pours black over the sphere, small creamy tan head. Aroma is metallic, with a roasty and caramel background. Chocolate or cocoa develops. Flavour is light chocolate or cocoa, malts, roasty finish. Dry. Light gentle body, not very creamy. The metallic off stands out. Everyone seems to remember it as much more creamy, smooth and full.
4.3 Из бутылки. Пена обильная, держится. Но вниз не опускается как с шариком из банки. Аромат ржаной, солодовый, немного кофейный. Старт жженый солод, сладкий кофейный, шоколадный немного. Финиш очень приятный, сладкий, мягкий, кремовый, с горчинкой
