Apr 19, 2008 A dark ruby, fizzy amber beer, with serious floaties (looks like there’s fish food in there) - aroma of plum, raisin, date, nutmeg, coriander, caramel, strong yeastiness, light wildflowers - fruity sweetness is nicely balanced by mild vinous character, some fruit skin tartness, and moderate warming spices - caramel, toffee, plum, yeast, figs - enormous fruit complexity - finishes with some orange and bright spices (coriander, ginger, and citrus peel) - really nicely done.

Apr 15, 2008 I remember when at the Olfabrikken open house, after around 14 of Christian’s regular beers, a few of us were still at his farm...uh...brewery, and he pulled out an Abbey style beer and I said, damn, this is the best of the lot!!! Copper...big head. Strong sweet malt aroma and flavor, with hints of plums, prunes, carob, bitter chocolate, molassas, some funky bitterness. Tasty and big overall.
