| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 12, 2009 Bottle from Systembolaget. Pours a brown color with a nice white head which remains until the beer is finished. Aroma is toffee, cocoa, spices, candy and some dried fruit. Flavour is sweet, with a very nice malt profile, though not supercomplex. There’s toffee, buttery cocoa (a bit like blending cocoa, butter and sugar to bake a cake of it), candy and spices. Some warming alcohol in the finish. Fullbodied. Very smooth mouthfeel, which is rather soft for the style. A tasty beer, which hopefully will develop more complexity after a year or so. martinjon (18), Sweden

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Bottle. Nice brown-red color. Fruit and chocolate dominates this beeer. Very lame for an 10,5% quadrupel. Not bad, but boring. Defreni (1027), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 10, 2009 Flaske: Brun uklar øl med et fint skumhoved. Duft af gær og sukker. En let syrlighed fra gæren gør at sødmen ikke tager overhånd. I det hele taget er dette et solidt bryg men ikke fantastisk. Meget let drikkeligt i forhold til procenterne, men ikke så nuanceret som en del andre af denne type. ante (2960), Stockholm, Sweden

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Dec 6, 2009 This is a surprisingly sweet beer. Lots of dried fruit, dates, especially. Banana chips. The alcohol is very well hidden, but the sweetness would probably keep you from drinking too much of this beer.
