Bottle @<a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/forums/cnudde-ølsmagn target=_new> Cnudde Tasting.. Clear medium amber color with a small to average, frothy, good lacing, mostly diminishing, beige head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, spicy, odd - difficult to describe. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (290308)

Bottle, 4.5%, batch#102. Roasted aroma, farty fruitiness, hint of raw liquorice. Hazy dark red colour. Small frothy light brown head. The flavour is quite roasted, hint of fruit. Thin mouthfeel. Dry roasted finish with raw liquorice aftertaste.

Bottle at Chris_o birthday bash 08. Attractive deep amber. Some spice, mixed spice, some malt. Ribena blackcurrant flavour. Some decent malts. Ok choc.

The Fonefan/Brugmansia Cnudde tasting. Thank you Yngwie for this one! Nice, dark copper with a nice head. The aroma has notes of malt and spices, a bit peculiar and difficult to describe. The flavour has sweetness, notes of roasted malt, caramel, light citrus - and IMO, it’s not very harmonic.

Bottle. Clear dark brown colour. Sweet caramel malty aroma. Rather thin mouthfeel. Well toasted bit spiced malty and chocolate flavour. Bitterish toasty finish with slight chocolate.
