Oct 1, 2008 Bottle at Fins ... Thanks to Fin for a great weekend and some Real intersting beers ... Nice deep copper ... very vineous ... little plums and yeast in nose ... quite deep malty character ... again vine fruits and a lot of yeast and quite a lot of alcohol showing.

Oct 1, 2008 initially looks like a dubbel with its toffee clean color and full yet narrow abbey aroma. sugary sweet, warming alcohol finish in the mouth. there’s subtle dried fig and rose petal but everything is washed away from the caramely sugary alcohol notes that linger from the previous sip and continue to intensify. Tasty and consistent, sessionable and fun to drink, but at this price I want to sip and savor.

Sep 29, 2008 Bomber! Pours dark copper with only a white ring for head. Caramel,sweet malt and hard sugar candy in the aroma. Very sweet initial taste lasts quite awhile. Alot of sugar present in the flavor. Candy,caramel and molasses. Has only a slight warming feeling.

Sep 28, 2008 Picked this up in cafe/shop in Ribe, Denmark consumed at home with Craig, Stella and Loz 26-09-08 Pours mid amber with an off white head. This beer is quite rich and creamy in the mouth and very flavouful. The alcohol is quite warming but in no way harsh. There is a little bit of spiritiness on the nose, some almond and also some light spiciness, pretty good.

Sep 25, 2008 Clear reddish ale with a thin white head that dissipates quickly. Malty amber, caramel aroma. Light carbonation, dark fruity esters of plums and alcohol. Nutty and very sweet.

Sep 17, 2008 22 oz, bottle. Pours a small head, with good laciing, nice reddish copper color....nose has a sweet apple smell, rather mild....tastes of sweetness, alcohol, with minimal hop bitterness at the end, fruit flavors were not as pronounced as expected....mouth feel adequate. I think it is somewhat unbalanced, with too much simple carbs in the brew.

Sep 12, 2008 Nice beer, this reminded me of a barley wine but with more carbonation and a belgian yeast twist. It looks like one. Hints of caramel and molasses come through in the taste.

Sep 9, 2008 Pours a golden yellow; with wihite lacy head. The nose is yeasty, fruity, and posibly light notes of bubble gum. It comes across the palate with a rather light taste of fruit and some yeast. With a very faint after taste.
