500 ml bottle. Finland. Very much toffee/caramel aroma. And flavour too. Not very Christmassy but good.

0.5l bottle. Starting to taste cold very nice and easy. warming up and gaining flavor, better and better. Small sips much better than big mouthfuls!

50cl bottle from Racetrack Liquors (Tamap, FL). Pours a dark golden color with thin white head. Minimal retention and lacing. Aroma is slightly malty with notes of sweet caramel, subdued hops, honey and spice. Flavor is sweet and malty with notes of candy sugar, honey, light roasted notes and nuts. Generally medium body with a slightly roasted finish.

Not especially good. Aroma is generic maltiness, with some small hop influence, while the flavor is the same. Nothing really special here.

Mediocre at best. the pour was the best part but downhill from there. Lingering aftertaste is what I hoped for and yet there was none.

Thanks kiefdog. Pours a copper gold with a nose of barley-wine flavors along with toffee and brown sugar. Flavor is same with cotton candy, malt, and some hops. Malt lingers with some fruitiness.

Bottle courtesy of kiefdog. Pours deep clear gold with white head. The aroma is mildly malty with light roast and fruity esters that move into winter spice. Smooth taste with roasted to nutty malts. The fruity esters and winter spices are noticed in several layers here and there. Very tasty.

Pours a clear copper color with a foamy off white head. Aroma and flavor of caramel malt, ripe fruit, seasonal spices and a touch of alcohol. Pretty average on the palate. No big deal.
