Miksu (2187), Jyväskylä, Finland Oct 27, 2009 Bottled, thanks hanniku and Timo A! Dark amber color. Very sweet, berryish, fruity and caramelly aroma with vanilla. Thick sweet flavor with toffee, caramel amd berries with raspberry and some rough herbal bitterness in finish. Chewy mouthfeel. Aroma is nice but the finish is dull. beerbuzzmontreal (2909), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Sep 18, 2009 Pours a cloudy amber color with a thin offwhite head. The aroma is pleasant but simple, caramel is the main attraction here. The flavor has a malty signature with caramel and hops, there’s mild bitterness in the end. The main flaw of this beer would be the palate, is feels lighter than any barley wine / english strong ale I’ve tasted and the texture feels dead, maybe it’s the very low carbonation. Overall, it’s a pleasant beer to sip, but not on par with the classics of the style. robinvboyer (1419), Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, Canada Sep 3, 2009 Interesting beer.........It’s got a really nice smooth subtle sweetness, reminds me of a good mead. Really nice caramel malts, some piney hops, and a semi bitter finish. A pleasure to sip and enjoy. TipsyMcStager (900), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aug 22, 2009 Sweet piney aroma. Pours cloudy orange with thin white head. Thin, with sweetness and pine in the flavour. mabel (2530), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 15, 2009 [2319-20090719] 341mL bottle. Grainy malt aroma. Hazy, dark amber brown body with a quick creamy off-white head. More grainy malt and mild fruit flavour. Medium body. Average.
(w/ DuctTape, jerc) jerc (3861), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jul 23, 2009 2009-07-19. Dark orange amber body with a modest beige head. Aroma is alcoholic and malty. Dry with touches of sweet caramel. (6+) Flavour is malt forward, dry alcohol in the finish lingers. Average palate. Okay but a bit rough overall.

A nice sipper.
