fonefan (6078), Ulfborg, Denmark Nov 18, 2008 <b>Bottle 50cl. @ Morning tasting after TFODRBSG 2008, Ulfborg, Denmark</b><br />Clear dark black color with a large, frothy - creamy, good lacing, fully lasting, beige head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, coffee, moderate to light light heavy hoppy, grass. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to heavy bitter with a long to average. Body is medium, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. (240808) yngwie (3893), Kristiansand, Norway Oct 27, 2008 Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours a clear, dark brown body with an almost tan head. Fruity and berry-ish on the nose. A little sourish touch too, and also some hoppy fruityness. Chocolate, burnt malt, coffee and hoppy bitterness in the flavor. Quite thin-bodied and dry. Fruity and bitter finish. A nice beer, but in a way it’s quite boring. (080824) Papsoe (11421), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 20, 2008 (Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of fonefan. Pours black with a reddish hue and a light brown head. Aroma of roasted malt. Medium body with fairly burned malty accents and a distinct malt bitter finish. 240808 Maria (4973), Thisted, Denmark Oct 1, 2008 TFODRBSG08 Courtesy of Brugmansia/Fonefan. This lovely stout is black and the head is dense, creamy and very lasting. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, hops and licorice and coffee. The flavour has a both hoppy and roasted bitterness, notes of roasted malt, dark fruits, licorice and a little coffee. I’m a sucker for beers with this ABW and flavour like they were a lot higher, this is one of them. MiP (6723), Flensburg, Germany Sep 21, 2008 Bottle, 5.1%. Sweet vinous aroma. Black colour, nice creamy stable brown head. Good roasted flavour, some barley bitterness. Vinous touch, perhaps a little creamy, and there is a weak cellary note.
