Jan 19, 2009 Bottle shared by akevitt. Pours a yellow-orange body with white head. Aroma of malts and dark fruits with maybe a hint of sugar. Flavor is surprisingly sweet - it’s mostly dark fruits and malts with maybe some raisin, apple, and apricot flavors. Easy to drink and medium-bodied. Finish is rather clean with a slight malt and sugary taste.

Jan 3, 2009 I was pretty amped to try this beer as I have been impressed with the other nils oscar brews. Pours an apple juice color with a minimal, white, quickly diminishing head. It definitely had a putrid fruity wine taste to it. Not my favorite Scandinavian brew by far. I liked Nogne barley wine style way way way better than this.

Dec 30, 2008 A nice beer! Amber color with moderate head. Malty aroma with a lot of sweetness and some hobs. The texture in the mouth is reach, creamy with a nice balanced taste between malt, hobs and sweetness.

Dec 19, 2008 Clear brown appearance with no carbonation. Amazingly its strength does not really hit you. Some sweetness but not a lot of flavour for a barley wine.
Still quite pleasant though.
