ØLFABRIKKEN STOUT is a pitch black ale with assertive roastiness and a long bitterness.
Beneath the tight brown head hides a beer with notes of licorice, coffee and cocoa with a hint of dried fruits. The burned flavor from the roasted malt is balanced by some residual sweetness and American Chinook hops

[4] Review by kschepelern from København Ø, Denmark who has tried this beer a couple times. (2/10/2006 6:30:45 PM)
"this one had me convinced that you CAN in fact enjoy a stout (since I've up until last night had nothing but contempt for any beer that smells/tastes like liqourice or even has the slightest trace thereof) but I was in for a treat there - the looks, the aroma, (OH the aroma), the feel and the taste - it looks so dense and thick (the head is the most inviting dark brown and lasts almost longer than the pint itself), the aroma is heavy coffee and just a touch of liq. with a sweet and well-balanced fullness to it, the feel is medium (a liiiittle disappointing after working yourself up sofar because of it's great looks, but still ok) and the taste is coffee, liq. and a quality smoothness - go there, it's worth at least one try"

"Bottled. Black opaque with brown head. Aroma of roasted malt and old coffee. Roasted malt, old coffee, licorace and weak alcohol in finish in the flavour. Very nice once it gets to about room temperature."
