| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Dec 16, 2009 Brown with a decent head. Roasted bread, nuts, a bit of soil are spotted in the aroma. Sweet chocolate-like flavours, and again I detect a bit of smoke in a Kerteminde-production. Don’t know why ... Well done, anyway.

Bottled
Roasted malts and a hint of smoke. Sweetness and low bitterness Adenila (950), Denmark
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 8, 2007 Exploding head. Color is dark brown and the head is brown and bubbling. Suprising complex aroma. Notes of grapefruit and pine on the hobby side, and with a good chunck of chocolate and roasted nuts on the malty side. Flavor is mainly bitter. Sharp bitterness from hobs, and some smoother bitterness from the dark roasted chocolate, not very sweet, which i like. Body is only medium and it comes off as a little bit weak in the finish, but a very nice beer for everyday use.
