Sep 16, 2008 On tap at the Brewpub. Reddish brown body with a dense off-white head. Aroma is mild malty with a hint of dry fruit and brown sugar. Flavor is sweet malt, some caramel, candy sugar, some dry fruit and a pleasant acidulous touch. Harmonic palate, relatively strong, truly hides the high alcohol, but I feel some more bitterness to this would make it more harmonic, it’s a bit on the sticky side right now IMO.

The aroma has notes of roasted malt, raisin, candy sugar and sweetness. The flavour has sweetness, notes of roasted malt, light raisin, dark candy sugar, syrup and light citrus. It could be more complex, but it’s a nice, average BW.

Mar 4, 2008 (on bottle, thanks Yngwie) Soft malty and blueberry-ish aroma. Light mouthfeel. The hops gets the sweet taste juuust in balance and adds a herbyness, witch actually saves the whole picture. Semiwarm finish.

Mar 2, 2008 Bottle @ thewolf tasting.
[thank you, Yngwie - handbottled same day]
Beautiful clear amber with next-to-nothing head - a thin film. Aroma is a bit weak, some muskiness, caramel and slight wet hoppiness. Great, oily mouthfeel. Actually reminds me a bit of the Old Stock (though inferior). Rounded flavour, good caramel, well vinious - overall good balance.
And to finish it of - I’d say "Svedbold!"
