Oct 25, 2009 0.5l from the Kloster gift pack sixer. Poured into a dimpled mug and let to warm a bit. Pours very dark and the light brown head disappears quickly. It has a thick mouthfeel and the alcohol taste is prominent. There is some sweet malt flavor as it warms.

Oct 12, 2009 Dark red/brown pour with a nice fizzy cream head that settles over time. Nose is a little muted at first, chocolate & coffee notes most prominent, quite heavy on the dark malt. Once warms the dark fruity esters come into play as does the spice. Palate is rather high in carbonation which lightens it up a touch but still rather full. Finishes with a big whack of spice & a hint of abv. Seems to have much more darker malt than i remember from the style. A good beer no doubt, with plenty of complexity.

Oct 4, 2009 (Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 26 Sep 2009) Deep ruby colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with notes of raisins and prunes. Malty, roasted taste with dried fruit, raisins and dark bread. Well balanced and smooth finish with a mild, spicy bitterness. More than medium body, balanced sweetness. Lovely balance with a solid malt character makes this a very enjoyable, slow sipping beer.

Oct 3, 2009 Bottle. Clear cola brown beer with beige head. Very rich aroma is malty and a bit caramelly. Flavor is even richer. Sweet maltyness, coffee and some chocolate even. Quite bitter in the end. Full body I’d say. This beer is truly enjoyable and very tasty.
