| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 27, 2006 Bottle. This is 100% indistinguishable from a coke when poured. Same color, visible carbonation, head, everything. Crazy aroma; prunes, raisins, hickory (?), feet, and, uh, rice pudding? Flavor is nearly identical to the aroma minus the feet part, which is good. Mouth feel is crazy smooth, with a slightly bitter and woody aftertaste. Like pasty raisins. This is malty on like every level. Yea, this is pretty interesting. Not something I’d have every day, but pretty interesting. madsberg (4973), Søborg, Denmark
