thewolf (3607), Kolding, Denmark May 12, 2008 Bottle, bought @ Tønden, Haslev.
Pours muddy red-brown with a medium, creamy off-white head. Good duration, nice lacing. Aroma is mildly fruity, lots of plums, raisins, grapes and caramel. Rather light mouthfeel, slightly creamy, Flavour is a bit mild, some oxidation, caramel, light hops. A bit unsophisticated.

Pinball (391), Allerød, Denmark Aug 12, 2008 dark fruits dominate aroma. unclear red with light brown head, flavor dark fruits, licorice, sirup, no aged beer. faint caramel, toblerone, all the good stuff from an age one,but not the "old beer" taste. very good, reminds me of westvleteren but this one far worse balanced. bermod (88), Lappeenranta, Finland Aug 6, 2008 Sweet aroma is sugary and apple-fruity.
