Nov 2, 2007 Yuk. Way too sweet for me. Nice malt and toffee aroma, but the taste made me gag.

Oct 31, 2007 Bottle at St. Veronus. Dark pour into a trappist glass. Nose was acidic, with hints of cardamom, some other spices I couldn’t make out, and heavy amounts of sugar with a touch of alcohol. Taste was sweet. Large amounts of brown sugar, cider, plums and licorice finish. This was a wonderful beer, but a tad too sweet for my liking. Definitely a worthwhile brew.

Oct 28, 2007 This beer looks like dirty apple cider. It is sweeter than apple cider. This beer is incredibly sweet. It’s too sweet for my taste. It’s like a dessert beer.

Oct 28, 2007 Dark brown with tiny head. Sweet malty aroma with fruit and toffee notes. Very sweet flavor with hints of plums, brown sugar, chocolate and malt. Well hidden alcohol that warms in the end.

Oct 16, 2007 Flaske. Ikke så megen duft, men stor smag. Ekstrem sød men ikke hvinende. Derimod en fin balance til den megen alkohol som gør at denne kun detekteres til sidst i en slurk. Yderst delikat. Men dog for en dimensionel til at komme over 4.
