| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 15, 2007 A Sim rate (on tap at the Flyng Saucer Houston): Cherry chocolate liqueurs in the aroma. Disappointing appearance with no head or lace at all. Bitter finish, with cherries and dark chocolate creeping in there again. It tastes way too strong - and only a 5.8% beer. How did that happen? pilsnerrogge (1786), Finspång, Sweden
