| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 17, 2006 Bottle (500ml). Shared with biegaman, blankboy and GregClow, GregClow’s bottle. Poured deep clear mahogany with a small off-white head. Dry, roasty, peaty aroma - rich, nutty, drop hops, faint fruit in the background. Taste - light, medium roast, fruity and quick off the palate - sweet, mildly spicy, almost a scotch ale. Decent body, creamy, no linger - really nice! Rune (2834), Tromsø, Norway
