On tap at Fynske Øldage, Odense, Denmark. Coppercoloured with a brown head. Hazy. Sweet malty aroma. Belgo-sweet with spices in flavor. Bitter finish. Rating: 5-4-6-3-13-3.1. (051029)

Bottle. (2006 vintage, maybe 2005) It pours a clear, copper body under a minimal beige head. Bready malts, caramel, a wee touch of coffee, a note of dried fruits and a starting oxidation in the aroma. Quite pleasant. Fruity flavor up front, soon assisted by bready and caramelly malts, a tiny touch of oxidation and dried fruits. Quite sweet, but not too sweet. It gives a little impression of spicyness towards the finish. Strange, but after a while, some alcohol warmth spreads on the palate. Quite effervescent. Sweet, caramel finish with a fine touch of bitterness. It bears the age quite well, and I’m no longer angry with myself for letting this one be forgotten in my cellar. (090126)

50 cl, dark amber with a medium head - typically sweet flavour for (most) Danish Christmas beers

Again this year (2005) Svaneke Bryghus has made a very nice beer with a good taste. It is good balanced, and a beer I would like to use for christmas. The label is very nice and simpel.

Bottle 2005 version. Herbal, malty aroma. Hazy dark amber with a steady, creamy head. Pretty. Flavor is a bit on the sweet side, but it’s complex and definitely christmasy. End-feel is sticky.

50 cl bottle. Yeast in bottom. A lot of caramel aroma, reddish brown colour with a weak head. The same flavour as the other beers from the brewery. Not a speciel good christmas beer.

(Bottle 50 cl) Vintage 2001 at 6,2% ABV. Very pretty, deep amber - close to mahogany actually. Fine but collapsing head. Very carbonated - too carbonated. Lovely malty body, dry with a hint of acidity. A bit more body and sweetness would be greatly appreciated. 311201

(Bottle 50 cl) Vintage 2003 at 5,8% ABV. 6/3/6/3/12=3 250604
