| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 17, 2008 Bottled - sampled January 2008. A hazy amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is metalic and oxidixed combined with a slightly acidic bret note - I don’t think it is unpurpose, but it’s not bad. The flavor is sweet and oxydixed in a nice way and again with a note of bret. Papsoe (15103), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 18, 2008 (Bottle 27,5 cl) Courtesy of kramer17801. Slightly hazy, amber golden with a small, off-white head. Intense aroma of overripe fruit and sherry. Medium body with absolutely no carbonation. Fruity, oxidized sherry flavours with a vague, underlying tartness. The hops are almost missing in the finish. Quite complex and interesting. 120108 yespr (12345), Copenhagen O, Denmark
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Jan 13, 2008 27.5 cL bottle. Pours slight hazy orange with fully diminished white head. Dark and dry raisin like aroma. Flavour is acidic lending itself into a slight citric note. Oldish dark fruity malt. Dark flavours. Ends with a dry almost woody note and a dry raisin note. Great aroma, strange flavour and palate, typical Gales which I find it hard to adjust to. omhper (12247), Stockholm, Sweden
