Sep 15, 2007 Very dark brown. Nice nose - chocolate, toffee, smoked plum. The flavour is full, toffeeish, slightly smoky. Bitter finish. One of the best Nognes I’ve had.

Dec 4, 2006 Black color; creamy head. Delicate aroma of roasted malt, vanilla and hop. Good taste, on a good structured body, with malt, a lot of caramel, a touch of liquorice and vanilla, chocolate and leather. An excellent beer.

Nov 3, 2006 Bottled (brewed 2 Aug 2006).
Opaque black, decent tan head. Very yeasty (and vegetably) aroma (also lots of yeast stick in bottle) with notes of toasted malts and chocolate. Very bitter flavor. "Floury" palate. Roasted malts, yeast. Long bitter and roasted aftertaste. I have to buy another bottle and cellar it till Xmas, this one was quite yeasty.

Jan 7, 2007 Fynske Øldage 2005, Odense. Dark brown with a nice head. The flavour is sweet with notes of roasted malt, caramel, dark fruits and a hint of clove. It has a nice bitterness. The alcohol is well hidden, and that is a potential danger - at least when beer tastes this well! It’s almost like a Barley Wine.
