| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 27, 2007 Tap at The Rover (Gothenburg). Wonderful red/brown colour with good head. Nice aroma with hints of chocolate, nuts and carmamel. Taste is also very nice, bready and malty and again caramel with a bitter finish. Also good on bottle. tarjei (1753), Bryne, Norway
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 21, 2007 33 cl bottle. Amber color. Ok off-white head. Sweet, malty, ok hoppy bitterness, some fruit. Abit thin, but still a good beer. Dedollewaitor (3752), Odense, Denmark
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 20, 2007 Pours dark amber/brown with a creamy head. Aroma is of dusty, ashy roasted malts. Some bitter roast & sweet caramel. Medium bodied. Medium to low carbonation. Since this is in the "vienna" category its OK.
But that dusty & ashy edge more of the beers from the brewery have ... not addictive... FatPhil (3484), Espoo, Finland
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 16, 2007 330ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki, Christmas Beers 2007)
Dark orange to brown, thin head. Honey malty aroma. Dry nutty malty taste. Bottle carbonation’s a little harsh, but nothing a good swirl can’t fix. Very tasty brew. SamGamgee (1460), Santa Cruz (La Selva), California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 9, 2007 33cl bottle from Systembolaget. Copper-red color with a very small, diminishing head. Nice aroma of toasted malts and pretty pungent hops. Flavor is caramel and some roast, but rather dry, and a nice grapefruit hop balance that is pretty bitter. Light and slick palate. Feels like an octoberfest with APA hopping to me. Interesting combo, and it works out okay, thought it’s lacking just a little in the malt department. HenrikSoegaard (4370), Randers, Denmark
