Bottle. Tasting 12-01-2007 (Søren, Peter, Carsten). Average creamy off-white head that mostly lasted. Excellent lacing. Body was light cloudy with a reddish brown color. Aroma was caramel, toasted, flowers, pine, herbs, spice and light tobacco. Medium to full bodied with a crisp dry texture and an average carbonation. Flavor was moderated bitter, but surprisingly balanced with the sweet. Finish was again dry crisp bitterness with an average duration. Quit nice one!

Pours a deep clear reddish copper, with 3" of light tan foam. Great head retention, great thick lacing. Dark fruit and a touch of whiskey malt in the aroma. Subsequent sniffs provide a light toasted malt. Toasted biscuit malt up front, definately on the dry side, with some blanched almond and peach pit. Spicy tart fruit (chokecherry?) in the background. Oak tannin and hop bitterness in the finish. Sharply bitter aftertaste, with spicy oak lingering. Medium bodied, gently but fully carbonated, clean and smooth. Overall a bit too sharply tart for me to enjoy more than one in a sitting.

Bottle, 6.3%. Dark brown colour, stable light brown head. Creamy mouthfeel. The flavour is quite malty and slightly peppery in a good balance. The bitterness gets a bit rough, but on the whole a very nice beer.

This beer pours a deep amber with a large tan head leaving some good lacing down the sides. On the nose I can smell the malts, kinda sweetish and spicy. This is one very drinkable beer... It’s not gonna fill me up! I like this beer and will buy it again! Cheers!

Hazy brown body and a bubbly off-white head. Very malty aroma and rich browned malt flavour. A little fruit underneath, more toward the end.

Orangish-brown and almost clear with a lacy beige cover. Toffee malt blends nicely with Goldings and some citrus in the aroma. Great malt flavor with a dried fruit finish. Dates and prunes. Good mouthfeel caps off this top-notch beer.
