Jan 3, 2008 (Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear, warm, reddish brown with a creamy, beige head leaving some laces. Roasted, coffeeish aroma. Full body with initial sweet accents of fruit and some almonds before these burned coffee notes appear combined with some dark chocolate. The finish is soft and smooth without much bitterness. This has a fairly unusual combination of the burned malt and the fruity, Belgian yeast. Overall this to me appears mostly like a Porter. 251207

Jan 1, 2008 Deep amber clear colour, with a nice brown head. Roasted aroma dominated by coffee and cocoa with notes of caramel. Flavour is sweet, with a grapes, roasted malts, lots of liqourice and anise and a clear raisin edge to it.

Dec 30, 2007 500ml bottle.
This is not a belgian strong ale.
Dark brown, thin head. Very sweet roasty malt aroma. Not enough to prepare you for the massively treacly roasty taste. A bit sticky, OK for sipping, but you’d catch diabetes from drinking 2 of these. The commercial description is wrong - it should Nils Oscar Julöl is excellent for _glazing_ ribs. Pretty tasty, but the tasty roasted malt is its one trick.

Dec 23, 2007 Bottled. Quite dark, looks a bit like "julmust". Almost no head, it disappears very quickly. Aroma of dark sugar, mocca, roasted nuts. Taste even more coffee. I feel some liqurice, but there’s something enticing with this one. Not a perfect beer, but I want more.

Dec 23, 2007 50 cl Bottle. Reddish dark brown colour with a little beige head. Aroma of roastedness, chocolate and hints of dried fuit. Little sweet flavour with notes of coffee, licorice and some yeast like. Nothing overwelming at all.
