Bottled at RBESG 2008. An unclear red-brown beer with an off-white head. The aroma has notes of malt and over-ripe fruits. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt and over ripe fruits as well as lighter notes of roasted malt, leading to a dry, bitter, and roasted finish. The alcohol tickles the palate.

courtesy of, and shared with Gnoff. ’07 bottle pours dark brown. Aroma is malty, chocolate, fruity and boozy. Taste, candi sugar, dark fruits; raisins, some caramel malts, light chocolate palate with residuous liquorice. Very drinkable, yet qbv is notoiceable, the beer feels it had some age on. Tasty!

On tap at Bishops Arms, Karlstad. I’ve never tried any strong beer on tap before so it was really interesting ...

Pours a deep brown color with a nice big white head. It remains until the beer is finished. Aroma is malty; there’s notes of caramel, dried fruits, raisins, plums and citrusy hops. Flavour is moderate sweet and lightly vinous with much plums, raisins, dried fruits, caramel and citrusy hops. Some sugary hints. Aftertaste is bitter and hoppy and the hops seems to dominate more than expected. Palate is really filling, a fullbodied beer with medium carbonation. Pretty smooth. A very drinkable beer but it feels more like a Barley Wine/American Strong Ale than a Belgian Strong thanks to the hops. On the other hand many American interpretations of Belgian ale can be like this, so this seems to be a Swedish interpretation of an American interpretation of a Belgian style beer ... it slightly reminds me about Brother Thelonious from North Coast.
