Bottle. A clear golden beer with a small off-white head. Heavy malty-sweet nose with a good fruityness. A touch of caramel and alcohol too. Full-bodied and almost sticky sweet in the mouth. Slightly warming too. The flavor has a caramel-like sweetness with apples and pears, alcohol and sugar. A touch of dried fruits too. Some bitterness towards the finish, followed by a metallic notes. A slight alcohol burn as it passes the throat. I’m not sure what I think of this one. It’s far from the worst strong lager beer I’ve had, actually it has some pleasant qualities, but half a bottle is enough by far. I guess the beer has most of its followers amongst the guys in the local park. (081113)

Bottle at Chris_o birthday bash 08. Clear clean gold with thin beige head. Bit syrupy but you know what? It’s not horrible. OK a bit pukey on the malts. Syrupy and hot alcohol. Crude and unsubtle.

Bottle at Ølfestival 2008, Århus
Blond color. Poor aroma. It’s a oily and quite burning Strong Lager, with a strong bitterness. Booze.

Amber with tiny head. Aroma has alcohol notes. Flavor is sweet and fruity with dominat alcohol note. Maybe it’s good after 15 years in the cellar...

Stark alkoholischer Antrunk, zusätzlich deutlich scharf. Eine anfänglich süße Note wird zunehmend bitter, geht aber anfänglich hinter dem Alkohol in Deckung und ist erst mit seinem bitteren Aroma zum Ende hin zu erkennen. Irgendwie schon bockbiermäßig, aber übertrieben alkoholisch und somit wenig gut abgestimmt. Test vom 22.10.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 8,8,6,7,4,6 - 6,55

330 bottle bought at a 7-11 shop in Copenhagen. Amber body under a thin filmy layer. Very vague aroma - only a brief note of sweet malt. There is also a malty touch in the taste, but otherwise the brew is thoroughly permeated with alcohol (02.08.2007).

33 cL bottle. Pours golden orange and clear with a diminishing white head. Slight sweet corn aroma with an alcohol presence. Full bodied. Thick caramel malty flavour with a slight sweetness and clear leveled upwards by alcohol without becoming burning only a bit warming. Warming slight malty finish. A very berry like notes throughout. This was my favourite at the 1996 beer election by Carlsberg, perhaps partly because we (I and my best buddy Carsten) could get this for 10 dkr at A-vej/KVL (incl. the official master brew drinking-glass I still have), 4 beers later and our friday was fullfilled. I rarely drink this today, but it certainly is well brewed.

This is a good example of a beer which isn’t even close to could hold the ABV. Golden with a fast disap. head. Malty harsh sweetness. Alcohol dominates througout. Texture is close to watery!
