| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 31, 2007 Updated: Mar 14, 2009Bottle, at RBESG 2007 in Glasgow, Grand Tasting. Hazy golden colour. Nice aroma of hops - spicy, oaky and fruity. Unfortunately I drank it too warm, but the flavour was still spicy and quite OK.
Rerate, 750 ml "champagne" bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 8.0%. Deep golden colour, slightly hazy, with a big and slightly off-white head. Lovely aroma of Amarillo and Cascade hops, with spicy and fruity (citrussy) notes, also hints of caramel. The flavour is spicy and zesty, with grapefruity hops but it is not too bitter. Hints of candi sugar and oak, but the beer is not sweet. Dry and slightly astringent finish. Alcohol is noticeable, but the beer is still dangerously drinkable for its strength. I’m upping it a point. In danger of repeating myself: Well done (again), Mikkel! Walt (2289), Chicago, Illinois, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 20, 2008 Bottle courtesy of kleyland. Poured a murky, dull orange with a huge frothy white head. Aroma of sweet malt, earth, sweet malt, vanilla and flowers. Comparing this to Panzer Pils, this one is at least as good. Not quite as sweet or hot, and a bit more well balanced. Pretty full bodied, with a lingering after taste. Malty flavor, bread, yeast, fruit and earth. Hop finish is mild, but solid. Bragesnak (2276), Aarhus, Denmark
