Draught. Very muddy brown, no head. Grassy, hoppy, vegetables in the very dry nose. Full-bodied, woody, sugary-fruity flavor, quite yeasty. Dry aftertaste. Maybe need to rest a bit more (eg. in the bottle).

Draught. Very hazy brown colour, small head. Aroma of fruit and yeast along with some malts. Flavour is yeasty, alcoholic and fruity. Alcohol is well hidden, but is part of a long and warming "aftertaste".

Malty, sweet, taste with burnt caramel, syrup, dark fruit and spices. Full-bodied and full-flavoured, tasty but a bit too sweet.

[Draught @ Stockholm Beer Festival] Dark reddish brown, weak head. Sweet, somewhat stale aroma. Very sweet fruity flavour with warming alcohol. Decent, but still too young.

[Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival] Muddy brown, no head. Aroma of almond and caramel. Sweet and full bodied. Very yeasty with cottony soft mouthfeel. Some citrus and spicy hops, but dominated by massive malt and very evident yeast character. Still young, but very good.
