Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Aug 17, 2008 Black colored with medium sized light brown head. Vinous aroma with bubblegum, licorice and raspberry-caramelly notes, weird one. Not too much oak here in flavor, vanilla makes nice combination with some spices. Aftertaste is sweet still with berries, licorice and some sourness. cab (861), Denmark Aug 9, 2008 Bottle.33cl. It has a beautiful, lasting, foamy, beige head. The aroma is so very complex. It has all kind of notes, several dark fruits, like dates and prunes. rallison (113), USA Jul 23, 2008 Thanks Carlos for cracking open this beautiful 750 for our tasting!
Red wine, spice and raisins in the aroma.
Complex taste. Raisins, grapes, wine and brown sugar play together. Woody and slightly vinous. Lots of spice character.
High carbonation yet quite rich - but not thick nor cloying in any way. Brown sugar spice on the finish.
Very nice beer. Side by side with the regular Pannepot, this beer is just not quite as good. Is this a great beer? Yes. But, the oak aging seems to take a little away from the base beer while making the flavors conflict ever so slightly - although, this beer is also slightly more complex than the base beer as well.
Quite simply, I’ll take regular Pannepot over this just barely (it has taken me a long time to come around to this conclusion - used to be that I couldn’t stand the spices in regular Pannepot!), but would jump at the chance to drink either one! MaltOMeal (642), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Jul 20, 2008 Updated: Jan 14, 2009750ml bottle shared, thanks to Papsoe. This poured dark brown with a tan head which produced great lacing. Nose was of dark fruit, brown sugar, oak and spices. Taste was of pepper and spices with vinous fruit. Very complex. Mouthfeel was medium with a dry finish and some alcohol noticeable. Incredible stuff! RomanW70 (297), Providence, Rhode Island, USA Jul 15, 2008 Had bottle at Delerium Tremens on 6/22. One of the best beers I’ve ever head. Aroma of dark fruits, dark caramel, spice, and licorice. Taste is even better, sweet, but with notes of wine, wood, spice, and dark fruits. An exceptional, exceptional beer. Zinister (1199), Houston, Texas, USA Jul 13, 2008 Thanks to MaltOMeal for this 2006 bottle! Shared with MaltOMeal and thickfreakness. Pours a dark brown with a tan head that leaves pretty lacing. Nose is brown sugar, pitted dark fruits, oak and winter spices, including nutmeg. Strong fruit flavor of plums and figs. Sugar and white pepper give extra levels to this beer. Palate has a rich sweetness and covering mouthfeel. This is a well layered beer...enjoyed every sip. Thanks for sharing Bill. VikingHammer (362), Lynnfield, Massachusetts, USA Jul 11, 2008 Pours a dark red with a big white head. Aroma of oak, caramel and some spice. Sweetness balanced with oak and lots of alcohol. Similar to the original but a bit sweeter. Still a nice beer BelgiskOlklub (397), Viby J, Denmark Jul 1, 2008 Bottle 75 cl. shared with my self - delicious. Perfect large creamy light brown head with excellent lacing. Lightly cloudy dark brown body. Heavy malt aroma of caramel and grain, oak barrels, heavy alcohol and light hops, brown sugar and spiced - coriander? Full creamy body and soft carbonation. Heavy sweet flavor and light bitter. A great beer.
