Jan 29, 2008 330ml bottle from Systembolaget, Linköping. Clear golden-brown body covered by a thin, beige head. Aroma of sweet dry cheese and dusty malts. Quite unusual taste containing lightly smoked caramel malts, chestnuts and a note of mould cheese. The sweetness is on a moderate level. Dry ending (26.01.2008).

Jan 28, 2008 Bottled.
Lots of malty sweetness, with a pronounced dryness in the finish. In the Scandinavian Christmas beer tradition, but more generously hopped.
Caramel, grains.

Jan 20, 2008 Bottle. Nice looking creamy beige head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Somewhat clear amber color. Aroma of light spicy - smoke, hint of nuts, caramel, grain and light underlying hoppy feel. Light dried fruity notes as well. Medium bodied with an average carbonation. Moderated sweet with light bitter flavor. Sweet and somewhat smoky finish. Quit nice.
