Bottle at L42. It pours hazy red - brown with a medium beige head. The aroma is sweet, oily, heavy, toffee, dried dry fruits, fruit cake, juicy, spiced, brown bread and burnt plastic. The taste is dry, bitter, oily, resin, warming spice, sticky, dried fruits, apricot, oily, toasted brown sugars, alcohol, warmth and burnt toffee with a drying finish. Medium + body, moderate carboantion and oily mouth - feel. Not that classy. Fair.

(Bottle @ VilleValla Pub, Linköping, Dec 15 2014) Pours murky medium orange, small cream head. Aroma is mostly malt, maybe Munich or Vienna?, sort of faint banana bread or some light Christmas cake but not much fruit. Flavour is the same, mainly malt that seems like one mid-weight sort of type, lightly fruity and lightly sweet, dried by alcohol and a bit of bittering hop. Some dried fruit aftertaste, slightly medicinal. Kind of one dimensional with low flavour concentration, seems watery. Fairly light bodied with moderate carb. Honestly, there was nothing wrong with this beer but it was really unexciting to me, there did not seem to be anything going on. An American strong should be a lot more hop-forward in my opinion, and likely also more interesting malt-wise.

Bottle. Hazy deep amber liquid with small to medium off-white head. Aroma of dried fruit, mango, pine, toffee, caramel, raw sugar and light booze. Taste is light sweet and medium bitter with notes of toffee, raw sugar, citrus and booze. Medium bodied with medium to high carbonation. Decent if a bit over carbonated and boozy.
