Malaysia's most read news website has published a Christmas call for tolerance for LGBTs from a reader.
The Malaysia Kini website published the article 'Bethlehem revisited – the sacred in the unfamiliar' by Queer Asian Spirit magazine editor Joseph N. Goh on December 22 in which he called on Malaysians to take Christmas as an opportunity to reflect on God's mysterious ways.
'Perhaps Christmas is a timely occasion to reflect on the unexpected and unusual workings of God in human lives - and perhaps even to consider the presence of the holy in the lives of LGBT persons,' Goh wrote.
'Christian theologians have always abided by the notion that all of creation is unequivocally good.
'Sin and error may not simplistically lie in Malaysian LGBT persons who attempt to be true to themselves, but in the frenetic efforts of those who condemn them without a thought that God can perhaps be encountered in previously unimagined places, including the lives of LGBT Malaysians.'
The call for tolerance came just days after Malaysian authorities condemned the establishment of an LGBT friendly mosque in France and warned about European trends about homosexuality spreading to Malaysia.
'They are using human rights as an excuse for them to do whatever their heart pleases but we must know what is right and wrong,' Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Mashitah Ibrahim told the New Straits Times.
Earlier this year Malaysian Prime Minister Mohammad Najib Abdul Razak decribed LGBT people as 'deviant,' while another Malaysian lawmaker has called for rehab centres for homosexuals like those used for drug addicts.
A lot of companies have chosen to downsize, and maybe that was the right thing for them. We chose a different path. Our belief was that if we kept putting great products in front of customers, they would continue to open their wallets.

Best Uses Comments about Organix Anti-Breakage Keratin Oil 3 Minute Miraculous Recovery, 6.7 fl oz: I really like Organix products, but this one is subpar. I have dry/brittle bleached hair, and am constantly trying to strengthen and grow my hair out. Unfortunately, this product does not cut it. I felt like it dried out my hair even more than it already is. It left my hair thirsty! I think that I will stick with my Aquage deep conditioner and Aussie 3-minute miracle.

You are here now
There are the sanctuaries built for worship—and that carry beauty and grace for all to see. And there are the improvised places of faith perhaps more subtle in the wonder worked there. Writer Brian Doyle summons one such place; and in images we explore other places of faith, near and far, past and present.
Rise up, my love

The university's chapel is again undergoing renovations having to do with bringing light to corners dim and musty since Jesus was a teenager, the noon Mass is again peripatetic, and today it was celebrated in an old classroom. All nine of us sat under an immense wall map of Rome "in the time of the pharaohs," as the young woman next to me informed me helpfully.
To the south there was an oil portrait of a brooding benefactor and a bulletin board festooned with class assignments and stern remonstrations; west was Rome, in all its eternal glory; east was a stack of folding chairs, in case of a miraculous surge of celebrants; and north, behind the makeshift altar and the dapper Father Celebrant, was a huge thermostat, as big as a hat, and two tremendous windows facing the university's central quadrangle. The students being gone for break, only surly jays and ebullient crows flitted by during Mass, that I noticed, although one time there was a sudden flurry in the grass, which may have been a hawk, or the grapple of squirrels.

The first reading is from the Song of Songs, my beloved spake, and said unto me, rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away, and miraculously my soul did leap, like a roe or a young hart, for reasons I do not understand, and realize I will never understand, and no longer care to understand; it's not the words, lovely as they are, read with passion as they are, but some inchoate inarticulate knowledge that there is a One who loveth me, and looketh forth, and showeth Himself through the lattices, and driveth the flowers and the turtles, the birds and the figs, the foxes and the vines; and though He standeth behind a wall, and is hidden in the clefts of the rocks, and the secret places of the stairs, I do see His countenance, and hear His voice, in every blessed bruised moment, if my eyes and ears are open; even moments like this one, when the skies are moist and gray, and it is November in my soul, and my worries do crest as though they were floods in the blood, and my fears for those I love who are ill and dark do be legion.
The second reading is from Luke, and when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the spirit, and spake out with a loud voice, and said, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy! and again my heart leapt, against all sense and reason. It's just a story, isn't it? It's just a story. It might well be fiction. It might well be a biblical editorial committee's way to foreshadow the arrival of the One in flesh like mine, only younger and browner. It might be utterly and egregiously untrue, a dream, a lie from tip to toe. Yet my soul did leap for joy, and I too blessed the womb that carried that Child, and I too shuffled silently and moved toward the thermostat and the tremendous windows to eat the bread that is not bread; and having eaten it I was changed, in subtle ways I do not understand.

We do not often admit that the essence of what we say and think and believe is utterly nonsensical, in every way, from the belief that there is a Lover who showeth Himself through the lattices, to the bread that is not bread. But almost every time I am soaked in the waters of the Mass, especially when it is celebrated not in glorious cathedrals but in musty basements and dusty classrooms, on dining room tables and rickety boards propped on sawhorses, my soul doth leap, and a deep thirst is slaked in some way I do not understand, and I shuffle out cleaner, quieter, happier. I cannot tell you how this is so, and all the words I use are weak. Yet it happens to me, and it has happened to you. I do not know how this sweet crucial thing can happen, or what it means, or how to explain it, but the very fact that it is there for us, possible, waiting, daily, all over the world, in every language, no matter how many people have tried to kill and forbid it, is an extraordinary thing that we should occasionally, with something like awe, sing aloud; and so, this afternoon, I do.

Where are the places you pray?
Tell us in a comment below.
- Matt Smith said on Apr 11, 2013
There are so many places I pray...the train, when I'm with friends, at the table with my wife before a meal, the Mission Gardens, walking around campus with SCU students, on a mountain road on my bike, in the redwoods on a hike. The list goes on. I'm struck recently with how many opportunities there are for wonder all around me.
- Lulu Santana said on Dec 17, 2013
One place on campus that always sparks a moment of prayer is by the Adobe Wall. Right after 9/11, I noticed one olive tree leaning onto the roof tiles and seemingly pulling its roots out of the ground. It reminded me of the fragile nature of our world. Shortly afterwards, the tree was cut down. Over time, the bare trunk began to sprout sprigs and now it looks like a full-sized bush! The sight of this bush draws me to pray for the areas of my life and our world that long for hope.

Vermont Legislature Approves Assisted-Suicide Bill
By editor
Originally published on Tue May 14, 2013 1:19 pm
And some other news now: Vermont is set to join three other states that allow doctors to prescribe lethal doses of medication to terminally ill patients. Last night, the state's House approved the bill. It now heads to Vermont's governor, who is a strong supporter. This makes Vermont the first state in the nation to pass a measure like this through legislation. Oregon and Washington approved their rules through public referendum, and a court order made physician-assisted suicide legal in Montana. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Facts and Events
John Wesley Crockett (July 10, 1807 in Trenton, Tennessee – November 24, 1852), was an American politician who represented Tennessee's twelfth district in the United States House of Representatives. It was the same district his father, David Crockett, had represented earlier. Crockett was born to David (Davy) Crockett (August 17, 1786 – March 6, 1836) and his first wife, Mary (Polly) Finley (1788–1815). John Wesley Crockett had one brother named William Finley Crockett and one sister named Margaret Finley (Polly) Crockett. In 1843, he moved to New Orleans and became a commission merchant. He was also a newspaper editor, publishing the National from May 22, 1848 and establishing the Crescent around 1847. In 1852, Crockett moved to Memphis, Tennessee. He died there the same year. He was educated in the public school system, studied law, and then was admitted to the bar. He began his law practice in Paris, Tennessee. Crockett held numerous local and state offices before being elected as a Whig to the Twenty-fifth and Twenty-sixth Congresses. He served from March 4, 1837 to March 4, 1841. Crockett was next elected by the Tennessee General Assembly to be the attorney general for the ninth district of Tennessee, and served from 1841 to 1843. He died at the age of 45 and was interred in Old City Cemetery in Paris, Tennessee.

The 802.3af standard may increase interoperability with new products, but organizations with nonstandard power supply equipment may want to check for backward compatibility before buying the new equipment. For example, Cisco Systems Inc.'s proprietary in-line power technology uses a different signature scheme and a slightly different "power envelope," says Bob Veliles, product marketing manager at Cisco. The company's 802.3af-complaint switches will provide backward compatibility with its existing IP phones that support Cisco's proprietary in-line power scheme, the company says, but competing products may not.
3Com Corp. users face a different issue. The vendor's proprietary in-line power scheme used 24 volts vs. the 48 volts specified in the new standard. As a result, the company's new, 802.3af-compliant switches won't support its older phones without adding a $30 converter module to each line. That's disappointing for Bill Miller, desktop services manager at the County of Nevada, Calif. He needs to buy new switches after a fire but already has older IP phones for some 60 users. "Which way am I going to go? I don't want to go backwards," Miller says, noting that any new 802.3af-compatible IP phones won't work if he buys legacy power supply equipment. "People that adopted [Power Over Ethernet] early lose out because their equipment is obsolete," he says.

Working Groups
SEEG has working groups, which undertake work on a continuing basis on the Group's behalf. Each working group focuses on a particular topic of high importance to the student experience.
- Assessment and Feedback
Chair - Professor Jon Scott | Secretary - Ms Kate Galloway - Student Employability
Chair - Professor Annette Cashmore | Secretary - Ms Kate Galloway
Task and finish groups
SEEG also establishes task and finish groups when required. These are devoted to a time-limited and specific task connected with an aspect of the student experience. Past examples include: the group that developed the Code of Practice for Personal Support for Students; the group that produced the current Code of Practice on the Work of Student Staff Committees; the group that led a pilot for Student Mentor Schemes.
Student membership
SEEG is committed to involving students in its mission to enhance the student experience. The Academic Affairs Officer of the Students' Union is an ex-officio member of the Group and additional student members, nominated by the Students' Union, may also attend. SEEG's task and finish groups, in particular, include several students in their membership. Typically the student members are course representatives. They are recognised as making an essential contribution to the groups' work.

In late 2005, the U.S. State Department decided that European Muslims needed America's help. Too many were living in parallel societies, cut off from the mainstream. Extremism and violence were rampant; it was no coincidence that three of the four 9/11 hijacker pilots had been radicalized in Europe or that Islamist terrorists had killed hundreds in London and Madrid. What Europe needed, the State Department figured, was help to set up an international network "to discuss alienation and extremism."
The idea was intriguing. The United States was the target of Islamic radicals, but its own communities seemed to have not produced the violence found in Europe. Experts had long debated the reasons for this. Some cited the fact that often the Muslims who immigrated to the United States either had jobs or planned to study. In Europe, by contrast, Muslims had come to work in industrial jobs that didn't exist anymore. They had working-class levels of education and lacked the skills to find new employment, leaving many frustrated, with too much time on their hands. Social services were thought to be related to the problem. In the United States, unemployed Muslims had few welfare benefits to help them out. If they wanted to survive, they had to work long hours. In Europe those who lacked employment could claim relatively generous welfare benefits and have time to indulge in extremist politics. Other explanations were batted around too: that Islamic violence was largely an Arab and Pakistani phenomenon; whereas a high percentage of Muslims in Europe had immigrated from these regions, those in the United States represented a broader array of homelands.
But no one made the single argument that informed the State Department's plan: that the United States had better Muslim leadership. A State Department-sponsored conference in November 2005 brought together 65 Belgian Muslims and U.S. tutors from the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). The U.S. diplomats thought so highly of ISNA that it seems to have been appointed as a co-organizer of the conference.
From a historical perspective, this was almost comical -- a case of taking coal to Newcastle. ISNA was founded by people with extremely close ties to the European leadership of the Muslim Brotherhood, a transnational Sunni alliance with an influential and complex presence on the continent. The State Department was importing Muslim Brotherhood Islamists with roots in Europe to tell European Muslims how to organize and integrate. Even more interesting, some of those European Muslims invited to the conference were themselves part of the current Muslim Brotherhood network.
One participant was a Belgian convert named Michael Privot, who at the time was vice president of a Saudi-Muslim Brotherhood organization called the Forum of European Muslim Youth and Student Organizations. This body was founded with direct support from the Muslim Brotherhood's umbrella organization in Europe, the Federation of Islamic Organizations in Europe. Privot was also vice secretary of the Complex Educatif et Culturel Islamique de Verviers, a center of Muslim Brotherhood activity in Brussels. It was also the home of one of Hamas's fund-raising groups, the Al-Aqsa Foundation (a group banned in several European countries, including Germany and Holland, for supporting terrorism). The meeting offered a chance for Muslim Brotherhood activists like Privot to meet their U.S. counterparts. In addition, the State Department helped bring Belgian Muslims to the United States -- to be trained as imams by ISNA and to participate in an ISNA summer program in Chicago. In short, it was a networking session for the Muslim Brotherhood -- paid for by U.S. taxpayers.
State Department officials acknowledged that they had invited people accused of extremism but said they did not care about track records. Instead, all that mattered were the groups' or individuals' current statements. In testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, the U.S. ambassador to Belgium, Tom Korologos, said, "Some of the organizations whose members participated in the Conference have been accused of being extremist. It is possible that some individual members of those organizations have made statements that have been termed extremist. Our view, however, was to base our selection on the stated policies and specific actions of organizations and individuals today with regard to harmonious Muslim integration into American and European society." And then, with a rhetorical flourish, he concluded that "four or five more conferences like this can lead to a network of moderate Muslims."

Following the release of third quarter 2012 results, most of the analysts providing estimates for Johnson & Johnson (JNJ - Analyst Report) have raised their earnings estimates for 2012. The revision in estimates mainly reflects the guidance provided by the company.
Third Quarter 2012 Recap
Johnson & Johnson's third quarter 2012 results exceeded expectations with earnings (excluding special items) coming in at $1.25 per share, 5 cents above the Zacks Consensus Estimate and 0.8% above the year-ago earnings of $1.24 per share.
Despite the negative impact of currency fluctuation, Johnson & Johnson recorded growth on the back of strong product sales.
Revenues increased 6.5% year-over-year to $17.1 billion, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $16.9 billion. While operational factors favorably impacted sales by 10.8%, currency fluctuations had a negative impact of 4.3%. Results included the impact of the recently completed Synthes acquisition, which contributed 5.8% to global operational sales growth.
The Pharmaceutical segment put in a strong performance with sales increasing 7.0% year-over-year to $6.4 billion (operational growth of 11.3% and negative currency impact of 4.3%). Recently launched products like Zytiga, Incivo, Stelara, Xarelto, Simponi and Invega Sustenna continued to perform well. Johnson & Johnson also recorded incremental sales due to the amendment of its distribution agreement with Merck (MRK - Analyst Report) for Remicade. Other growth drivers include Prezista as well as Velcade.
(Read our detailed earnings report at: J&J Beats on Higher Revenues).
Agreement of Analysts
Estimate revisions for 2012 indicate a significant positive bias. 14 of the 18 analysts providing estimates have raised their estimates for 2012 following the release of third quarter results with no analyst moving in the opposite direction.
Meanwhile, the estimate revisions for 2013 also show a similar trend with 11 of the 21 analysts providing estimates raising their estimates with just 2 analysts moving in the opposite direction.
Over the last 7 days, there have been no estimate revisions for 2012 and 2013.
The upward revision in estimates reflects Johnson & Johnson's strong performance in the third quarter and raised outlook for 2012. Following the release of third quarter results, Johnson & Johnson upped its earnings outlook for 2012 to $5.05 - $5.10 in 2012 (old guidance: $5.00 - $5.07 per share).
Magnitude – Consensus Estimate Trend
With the significant positive bias in estimate revisions, estimates for both 2012 and 2013 have gone up by a few cents. While 2012 estimates are up by 3 cents, 2013 estimates have been raised 2 cents.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2012 and 2013 now stands at $5.09 and $5.48 per share, respectively.
Neutral on Johnson & Johnson
We currently have a Neutral recommendation on Johnson & Johnson. The stock carries a Zacks #2 Rank (Buy rating) in the short run. Even though we expect Johnson & Johnson to continue facing headwinds in the form of EU and Japan pricing pressure and manufacturing issues, we believe Johnson & Johnson's diversified business model, lack of cyclicality, and strong financial position will continue helping Johnson & Johnson pave its way through tough situations.
About Earnings Estimate Scorecard
As a PhD from MIT, Len Zacks proved over 30 years ago that earnings estimate revisions are the most powerful force impacting stock prices. He turned this ground breaking discovery into two of the most celebrating stock rating systems in use today. The Zacks Rank for stock trading in a 1 to 3 month time horizon and the Zacks Recommendation for long-term investing (6+ months). These "Earnings Estimate Scorecard" articles help analyze the important aspects of estimate revisions for each stock after their quarterly earnings announcements.

Orchard Park (WKBW.com) Three games left for the Buffalo Bills but wide receiver Stevie Johnson is thinking about the future. His future. Johnson becomes a free agent after this season but made it clear once again on Wednesday he hopes to continue his career with the Bills.
"I want to be here. Period.", said Johnson on Wednesday.
But Johnson, who leads the Bills in receiving with 63 catches for 790 yards and 6 touchdowns, says that he has not had any recent talks with the Bills about a new contract. The two sides were discussing a deal earlier in the year and Johnson admits he was upset when the two sides couldn't get it done. "At first yeah. That was months ago, but now it is what it is.", said Johnson. "It's a business. We'll see what they are doing. They have plans upstairs, maybe make some moves and then bring me back later on. We'll have to see how it plays out", continued Johnson.
Johnson says he would be willing to talk about a contract if "everything is right", but is content with playing the final three games and seeing what happens. He has no plans to approach the Bills. "We good. We're just going to let it ride out and see what happens at the end of the season".

About COSNet
'characterising and analysing complex systems for explanation, prediction and control'
Vision: Complexity is the common frontier in the physical, biological and social sciences. This Network links specialists in all three sciences through five generic conceptual and mathematical theme activities. It promotes research into how subsystems self-organise into new emergent structures when assembled into an open, non-equilibrium system. Outcomes will include new technologies and software tools and deeper understanding of fundamental questions in science. An essential function of the network is introducing researchers and end users to new tools and broadening the horizons of graduate students. The Australian Research Council (ARC) provided c. AUD 300,000 per annum for five years to the Network (beginning mid 2004) in support of this vision. For a fuller summary of the proposal, click on Vision in the menu to the left.
NOTE: As the ARC funds are now expended the network is currently in caretaker mode, but it is hoped that this website will continue as a resource for the complex systems community. If you have comments on whether the network should continue, and in what form, please contact the Convenor.
Joining: Currently COSNet has over 600 participants from all parts of Australia, and across the globe. If you are already a participant please check your profile.
Who we are and what we do:
- This searchable web site plays a key role by providing information exchange and contacts between participants through the various sections on the menu to the left, in particular by providing a personal profile page for each member of the Network in the Participants section. You can help by keeping your profile page up-to-date. There is also a Wiki section you can help build in a hands-on way.
- Keep an eye on the News page for recent items of interest. An overview of COSNet activities can be gained from the Annual Reports and the 2006 COSNet Forum page.
Funding was provided by the Australian Research Council and the Contributing Organisations: The Australian National University, The University of Adelaide and The University of Queensland, in partnership with the CSIRO Complex Systems Science Emerging Science Area. Monash University also contributed as host of the e-journal Complexity International and VLAB.

PLATO Computer Learning System 50th Anniversary
[Recorded: June 2, 2010]
Science fiction writer William Gibson once famously said, "The future is already here. It's just not evenly distributed." Such was the case in the early 1970s, when the fourth generation of the PLATO system, evolving since 1960 at the University of Illinois, made its debut. Viewed from today, it is hard to believe that the PLATO IV system could have existed when it did: Terminals with touch-sensitive, gas-plasma flat-panel displays, random-access audio, built-in color mi

A- Pours black with a finger of creamy brown head, great retention, spotty lacing. S- Loads of chocolate, roasted grain, fruitiness, along with wood, scotch and peat. Smells pretty awesome. T- More chocolate heavy, dark fruits and roasted grain, more scotch and peatiness towards the finish. M- Full-bodied, creamy, just a bit of heat in the finish. O- Didn't have any trouble finishing the bottle, a quite tasty and complex beer, although doesn't come close to my favorite from the series (of course, Double Black).

This is Black Albert aged for two years in single malt Islay Scotch Whiskey barrels (1995 "The Distillers Edition" barrels) from the Caol Ila distillery out of Scotland. Score: 92 Unknown vintage bottle from "Lot 4533300911." This beer is presently retired. Served in a snifter glass and enjoyed on 02/04/13. Major thanks to Adam (crosamich) for hooking me up with this major want! Appearance: Pours a coffee color with a half finger layer of mocha colored head that settles to a thin covering that coats maybe half of the top of the beer. Below average lacing, average retention. Some spotty lacing remains behind after the beer runs back down into the glass. 4/5 Smell: At first, right out of the fridge, the aroma is heavy on burnt chocolate/licorice. As it warms up, however, the "burnt" characters mellow out. Bakers chocolate, burnt brown sugar, faint smoke, and a mild amount of cherry and dark fruit. Some wood towards the back of the aroma too. Some of the elements of the nose are appealing, but the components overall do not meld together smoothly. The nose is a bit rough around the edges. 3.75/5 Taste: The aroma initially put me off, but the taste is much better incorporated. There is more cherry flavor and chocolate and substantially less "burnt" qualities on the palate. The peatiness is still pretty faint, but still more pronounced. The smokiness does not add much flavor, so much as it adds a little prickling sensation on the throat after the swallow akin to peppers in a beer. The licorice is also pretty faint, and a mere accent in the finish. Some molasses too, primarily towards the finish. Hint of oak. More chocolate flavor prevails as the beer warms up. 4.25/5 Mouthfeel: Full bodied, minimal carbonation. Slightly sweet, but miles away from cloying. Has a very dry, almost chalky, finish that accenuates the viscosity of the brew. 4.5/5 Overall: I've been told by several people that this beer was a "Black Mess," but found that I enjoyed everything about this beer except maybe the nose (at least until it warmed up). The smokiness present in this beer is about as subtle as smoke can possibly be in a beer. Although I found this variation of Black Albert inferior to the original (as I did with all of the other variants of Black Albert that I have tried), I think that this was one of my favorite barrel treatments. The mouthfeel is very viscous thanks to a dry finish, and that is how I prefer my stouts. This may be the best beer I have ever had aged in Scotch barrels. Recommendation: Seek a bottle of this out if you want to try a good example of a well-aged beer in Scotch barrels. Cost: $12 for an 11.2 oz bottle. Serving type: bottle 02-05-2013 04:40:37 | More by jegross2 UCLABrewN84California 4.33/5 rDev +3.8% look: 3.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4.5 Thanks to Wowcoolman for sharing this one at jmgrub's tasting. Pours an opaque black with a foamy dark khaki head that settles to an oily film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down either. Smell is of dark roasted malt, cocoa, scotch, and wood. Taste is much the same with an alcohol kick and a peaty finish. There is a mild amount of roasty bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp and medium bodied mouthfeel. Overall, this is a very good beer that is really tasty but strong.

Appearance: Dark brown almost black with an intial 1/4" tan cap that recedes quickly to a ring. Smell: Some roasted malt, coffee and chocolate aromas, with a touch of a peaty smokey aroma from the Islay malt. Like most variants of Black Albert as the beer warms the aroma deepens and broadens.. Taste: Same as the nose, again the flavor of Black Albert, Belgian yeast, roasted malt and chocolate this time with overtones of a smokey scotch. Not to say this beer is smokey but if you've had an Islay whisky you know what I'm talking about. Exceptional take on Black Albert. Mouthfeel: As usual a very nice creamy mouth feel, very smooth with it's abv very well masked. Overall: Yet another incredible version of Black Albert/Black damnation from Urbain & Carlo!

Retention is outstanding. Incredibly inviting. S - Bitter chocolates and cream are evident. A good amount of alcohol on the nose. Restrained roasted malt. No caramel. Seems bitter based on the nose. T - Opens creamy to a roasted and chocolate malt body. Not as bitter as I'd thought based on the nose. Well balanced. Heavy chocolate notes. Alcohol is prevalent, though not obtrusive. M - Full bodied, thick and creamy. About right. D - A nice stout, but really nothing special. Well balanced and well built. High quality and drinkable but largely unremarkable.

Reviewed live. Expectations are through the roof; I loved Black Damnation II. Cost was about $10.00. Served after a warming period from the fridge and allowed to warm futher over the course of consumption. Side-poured with standard vigor as no carbonation issues are anticipated. A: Pours a three finger rich tan colour head of beautiful cream and thickness, and downright amazing retention for the wine-esque 13% ABV. Body colour is a nontransparent opaque dark brown-black. No yeast particles are visible. No bubble show. Sm: Cream, caramel, dark malts, subtle java/coffee with some accompanying roast, hints of chocolate, and roasted barley. I get some slight alcohol. No real yeast character. A pretty strong aroma. T: Rich coffee and accompanying roast, with subtle dark and chocolate malts comprising the unobtrusive rich foundation. Caramel, cream,and even a hint of subtle spice (as in hot spice, not kitchen cabinet spice). The coffee is great, but there's not enough of it. Real well balanced, though some alcohol does trickle in. It's not as complex as I expected, but it's tasty. Mf: Smooth, wet, rich, and nicely thick. Carbonation is near perfect. Complements the flavour profile quite well. Dr: Drinkable for its high ABV, but some booze does enter in unfortunately. Still, for 13% it's quite well concealed. I do like it, and it's another good offering from De Struise, but I arrogantly hoped for more. It's a solid beer within the style, but it's not amazing. Mocha Bomb was better. Certainly worth a try, and I'd like to see how it ages. I wouldn't want to kill a bottle by myself; it's certainly a sipper.

Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about an inch tan head. Head retention and lacing are both good. The brew smells like roasted malt, Scotch whisky, smoke, coffee, bittersweet chocolate and some wood. It tastes like roasted malt, chocolate, Scotch whisky, dark fruit, coffee, wood, smoke, and some caramel and molasses. It's sweeter than I was expecting it to be, not that I'm complaining. Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's a bit slick and creamy with a moderate amount of carbonation. Drinks way too easy for being 13% ABV. I think this is a good overall brew, definitely worth trying!

A: Pours an absolutely black oil color forming a medium thick creamy brown head. Good retention and some spotty lacings left. A thin bubbled brown layer remains forever on the top S: Delicious smell of roasted malts, dark chocolate, oak and liquor. Notes of vanilla, caramel, yeasts and flowery hops. Light alcohol can be felt on the end despite of the considerable ABV T: Damn roasted and bitter. Dark chocolate. Notes of coffee. Evident Black Albert backbone: thanks god! Strong notes of oak and Scotch. Absolutely tasteful beer. Upfront is slightly sweet but it quickly changes to a deep roasted and bitter taste. A beer to beer geeks M: Thick and creamy body. Slightly molasses too. Medium carbonation (not bad to such high ABV). Aftertaste is a intense roasted bitterness O: A masterpiece., simply. As good as a Black Albert. Very intense experience.

A: Pours a glassy black with a huge tan head. Good retention. S: Ground coffee beans, earthy cocoa and some peat, a hint of acrid smoke. T: Scotch barrels are there in a big way, but aren't too overwhelming. Notes of chocolate, bitter coffee, some yeasty dried fruit aspects come out of a bed of woody peat. M: Medium with a decent amount of carbonation. O: The more Scotch barrel-aged stouts I try, the more I think stouts shouldn't be aged in Scotch barrels. This is one of the more balanced ones out there, but the flavors just don't do it for me.

Appearance: A glorious dark brown to almost black with a coffee colored 1 inch head with great retention and minimal lacing. Smell: A fantastic scotch ale smell that is quite chocolaty. Sweet brown caramelized sugar smell. It has an earthly base smell to it. Taste: Oh wow, it's quite complex and smooth. The chocolate and sweet roasted malts make it an earthy brew. The scotch base helps with the smoothness, but somehow the high ABV is masked quite well. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied, full rich feel. Excellent carbonation. Drinkability: An excellent brew, I was waiting all week for this one at Brick Store.

No lacing, but lots of legs. A roasty, nutty aroma, with a slight fruitiness. Whisky in the nose is quite restrained. Overall, the aroma is a bit sedate. The taste is predominantly burnt coffee and dark chocolate. Again, there's less whisky influence than I'd like. Picks up a strangely acidic note as it warms further. Despite the large head on the pour, there's very little carbonation in this, but it still avoids being cloying although it's definitely heavy. Overall, this is a bit of a letdown for me, as Caol Ila is one of my favorite whiskeys and it doesn't seem to have really shown up here to any significant degree.

Poured from .33cl bottle into snifter glass at a tasting. Pours black with a beautiful brown head that dissipates too quickly. Aromas of scotch whiskey and roasted malts. The flavor suggests the predominate traits of Black Albert here along with the vintage bottle of Scottish whiskey. Thin and sticky mouthfeel. Overall, not too shabby.

Enjoyed with breakfast on my last day in Belgium - great pairing with a chocolate croissant, btw. Big thanks to beerpirates for providing me this bottle in an in-person trade. A: Opaque black, even when held up to direct sunlight. Some dediment is floating around, but that's my fault for pouring forcefully; the upside of the pour is a rich, magnificent head of fine mocha-colored foam. Good retention, nice lice. Simply massive. S: Huge. Major molasses, coffee, dark chocolate. Dark fruit and oaky vanilla. Not much Caol Isla per se, but there's definitely some barrel presence. Oh, there's also some significant booze, but that's to be expected. Quite nice. T: Starts out sweet and fruity, with coffee, chocolate, and alcohol pushing in on the middle. The finish is boozy and oaky, with some lovely Islay sea salt and peat sneaking in on the aftertaste. I wish the barrel were more prominent, but it's still very good despite its slight lack of balance. M: Smooth, full, sticky, and perfectly carbonated. Just what I want out of a huge stout. O: Incredible beer, but definitely not as good as Mocha Bomb. I wish the Scotch had been more evident. Cheers!

Looked fine enough: opaque black with a large, creamy, tan head that retained well and left some soapy lacing on the glass. Aroma was strangely faint, with distant scents of smokey malts and booze. Taste was unusually light, flavors of roasty malts, grainy alcohol, an underlying caramel sweetness, and an almost rubbery character like I was drinking out of a water balloon. Kind of lacking in the flavor department. Mouthfeel was a bit thin as well, almost watered down. Not too impressed by this one at all.

The Islay aging is great. Some of the other Struise beers are over the top with too much alcohol taste, but this one is just right. It is tough to find, but if you see it, pick up enough to drink and enough to put some up for a while. Nice classic Struise "Damnation" taste with a nice addition. Very, very nice!

Head has very good retention and leaves quite a bit of lacing. S - Smoke, char and earthiness, with some definite Scotch notes up front. Eventually, some chocolate and oak come through T - More chocolate up front than in the nose, followed by some Scotch, smoke, char and earthy roasted malts. There is a slightly tart dark fruit taste that I didn't get at all in the nose. Finishes quite dry with the roasted elements lingering. There is a substantial char character to the taste, which I often don't like, but I didn't think it took away from the taste in this case. M - Medium mouthfeel, not overly heavy, with a dry, roasted finish. O - A very good stout. I liked Mocha Bomb and regular Black Albert more, but this is pretty tasty and I didn't notice any alcohol in the nose or taste.

Call me crazy, but the label reminds me of the cover to Rammstein's "Sehnsucht". Anyway, this stuff pours a bleak black-brown (which comes off pretty much as black) topped by a finger of sienna foam. The nose comprises husky roasted malts, soft oak, cocoa, brown sugar, and a vague sense of smoke in the background. Damn, my nostrils are thrilled to be smelling this right now! The taste holds notes of roasted malts, coffee, scotch, light peat smoke, wood, and bitter dark chocolate. Things are a bit more astringent than in the smell, a bit boozier as well, but still generally pleasant. The body is a lithely stolid medium, with a very light moderate carbonation and a smooth feel. Overall, this is the best of the Albert variants I've yet had. Damn fine stuff.

Escondido, CA Pitch black throughout and a very thin light brown head. This doesn't leave much more than a few small spots of lace down the glass. Gorgeous color. Balanced and not overly strong aroma, but what's here is very nice. A nice combination of roasted malt, a bit of smoke and wood character, some chocolate, and a touch of coffee. Complex and not at all overpowering. Simple, straightforward, though delicious flavors of roast, mild coffee, some chocolate, and a touch of smoke or wood. Incredibly well rounded and highly drinkable, especially for the incredibly high ABV. Medium to thick bodied with low carbonation and no presence of alcohol whatsoever--a miraculous accomplishment. A very well rounded, complex, and highly drinkable big stout.

What a nice treat. Thanks Erik! Poured in a the Molen tasting glass this beer looks very nice. Pitchblack with a reasonable head. There was something with the smell which was hard to ignore. A bit of an earthy taste, like the barrel was a bit moisty in a late octobermorning. About the taste enough has been said, i am glad i had the chance to try this one. I had some bottles a year ago but gave them all away or shipped them to BA's.

I drunk it after the messy on Borefts. It was a gift from beer buddy Jeffo or one of his friends, I don't exactly remember because I was a bit turned of by the messy.

The beer poured pitch black. A three-finger tall crop of tight, coffee-colored foam topped the liquid. Terrific head retention. With every sip, a thick sheet of lacing coated the glass. The crown slowly dissipated to a thick, lasting ring. The nose was fantastic as well. It was incredibly deep and dark with intense, smoky, peaty and roasty notes. Super smooth. Lots of semi-sweet chocolate and brown sugar as well. Coffee came through strong. Quite pleasant overall and nicely balanced. The nose became sweeter and boozier as the beer warmed. The flavor profile was initially dominated by peaty, smoky, salty and dry, scotch-like notes. There was also a fair amount of oxidation. A characteristic "wet paper" flavor was apparent. Tons of dark malts came through up front. Coffee and roast appeared in the center. Lots of brown sugar sweetness as well. Somewhat woody and oaky. The peaty saltiness was really noticeable on the dry, tannic and alcohol-rich finish. Quite whiskey-like. Some bitter espresso came through as well. A touch acrid. The beer really seemed to mellow out as it warmed. Both the oxidation and the acridness settled down. The booziness was still quite prevalent however. The mouthfeel was certainly the most disappointing aspect of this beer. It was surprisingly thin and watery, especially when considering that this is a 13% ABV imperial stout. Also, because the carbonation was so subtle, the beer felt nearly flat. The residual sugars in the liquid were quite noticeable, and they left a sticky coating on my lips. Although this beer may not be for everyone, I found it to be quite interesting. Because of the not-so-subtle influence of the Caol Ila barrels on the beer, spirit lovers should take particular note of this offering. If you have an affinity for the peaty, salty, smoky stuff, you will likely enjoy this beer too. Serving type: bottle 09-17-2011 04:19:16 | More by Damian |
