Smells citrussy and pithy. Tastes citrusy and roasty, as well as sour and slightly alcoholic. Nut and caramel show up after a few sips too. Very different from most other beers I’ve ever tried. Definitely grows on you as you make your way through it. An interesting complex beer that’s definitely worth the try and that I’ll probably get again. garthicus (1311), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

golden and cloudy,
quite dry, hint of hops. Quite an alcoholic flavour but enjoyable rickgordon (3331), Göteborg, Sweden

Dark brown colour, big off-white head. Cooked vegetables in aroma along with sugars. Sugar is very prominent in flavour, it’s pretty raw without complexity. Bit of glue. Darker flavours can only be imagined here. Sweet and alcoholic beer. Need to sit for some time longer. Big disappointment. larsniclas (3390), Gothenburg, Sweden

Very dark brown. Large off-white head.
Pretty sweet with a lot of alco-feel. Some chocolate and burnt sugar. A bit disappointing. rlgk (3378), Vårgårda, Sweden

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 6, 2007 Bottle at Concordia Ale House. Pours deep brown amber, yeasties floating around. Dark fruits in the nose, with lots of malty richness. Before I tasted the flavors, I encountered strong alchohol carbonation/burn. But the flavors were still apparant. Carmel, prunes, raisins, and other complexities. I would drink this again. after4ever (2825), Brier, Washington, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jun 30, 2007 750 at the Seattle International Beerfest. Pours deep dark, murky brown with thick, moussy, fizzy tan head. Big apple-y caramel nose. Big body but not over the top; firm carb, lots of forward sweetness: caramel, toffee, apples. Thick sweet mid-palate and finish but not overly cloying. Wonderful stuff.
