Cognac, cherry, alcohol, wood, fruity, and fusels, and wow. Beautiful balance of alcohol, fusels, wood, fruity esters, dark fruit. Vinous². Viscous, oily MF, just sliding down in a lethal way - perfect balance. Effectively the best Dutch beer ever tasted, genuine masterpiece, whatever mixing it required. sunevdj (1788), Copenhagen OE, Denmark

Explosion of raisins, vinous dark malt, and vanilla and bourbon in the nose. Opaque from black malts and yeast haze under a nice, lacy cover. Excellent spiced raisin flavour with vanilla, liquorice, bourbon oak, and salty accents. No way this is 12.7%. Sour prunes in there too. Medium body, moderate carbonation, moderately bitter finish, warming and a bit mouth puckering. TBone (6868), Pori, Finland

My 5000th rating!
Dark ruby color, thick expresso head. Glueish, fruity, dark berry (plums) aroma. Plummy, alcoholic, sweet touch of wood, licorice. Extremely warming, of course, still young, but already enjoyable. And very interesting what kind of (different) beer can be brewed with Bordeaux yeast by mixing Esra and Rasputin. Mette (224), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 16, 2008 på træfad til ølfestivalen, fredag.
Sort med råhvidt skum. Karameller, choko, mørke tørrede frugter i smag og duft. let ristet, let sprittet men også blød og rund god fylde. smager rigtig godt .
Noget af det bedste på festivalen.
