Sep 15, 2008 2002 bottle, shared by willblake @ DDC 10th Anniversary Party. Thanks, Jon! Pours a bright, clear honey-edged amber color; light-tan head with fine-bubbled lacing. Very generous aroma: plenty of dried fruits, honey, and red fruitiness; dates and raisins; some supportive oxidation. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: chewy dried fruits, dried caramel, and viscous, sweet honeyed notes; very enjoyable, very generous scotch ale; some butterscotch, restrained sweetness, nicely composed. Lengthy finish: caramel, dried fruits and plenty of honey-tinged sweet malts; pleasantly sweet.

Sep 12, 2008 (Bottled) Hazy red-amber with a small head. Toffee-caramely aroma. Flavor of toffee-syrupy malt, and some warming, barley-winous alcohol. Maple syrup clearly feels in this one, but fits in pretty well. Medium-bodied with lowish carbonation. Somewhat alcoholic overall.

Sep 6, 2008 Bottle, bought @ Vinens Verden, Odense.
Pours deep, hazy red-brown with a small, unimpressive, fizzy, off-white film head. Good fruity aroma, some berries, a good dose of caramel, some toffee, lightly roasted. Medium carbonation, impressive, oily mouthfeel. Great flavour. Lots of dryish chocolate, some roasted malts, toffee and caramel. Some fruitiness again. Good hoppy finish with a generous dose of spiciness. Great beer.

Aug 22, 2008 (Bottle) Pours deep red with a small sand colored head. The aroma is sweet with tones of maple syrup, dried fruits like prunes, tobacco, roasted nuts/almonds, wood, light chocolate, ripe bananas, ripe apples, vanilla, toffee and candi sugar. Good alcohol warmth is present with notes of brandy, liquor and old port. Hints of hops and maybe a whisper of lingonberries and raspberries. The flavour has a harmonic sweetness that brings tones of nutty and toffee-like maple syrup, dark dried fruits and caramel. Undertones of spices and hops. The finish is light bitter and numbing with tones of cocoa, hops and alcohol. The mouthfeel is full, soft, smooth and light velvety. The beer leaves an oily coat on your palate. Medium to full bodied.
