Bottled (2006 vintage, bought from Alko). Ambery red colour, small beige head. Aroma is alcohol, some caramel malts and chocolate cookies, some mild fruity hops as well as plum and raisins. Also some sweet wood. Flavour is very much raisins, plum, alcohol and caramel malts in an excellent balance. As it warms up it also becomes quite wooden, mildly syrupy as well as vanillaish. Also some toffeeish/fudgeish notes with nuttyness growing towards the finish. Aftertaste is nuts, raisins, some alcohol, wood and vanilla in a really nice mixture. Really soft and smooth to drink. Brutally good.

Red copper with a medium lasting, off-white head. Malt, hops and port in the aroma. Sweet with a bitter kick, some tobacco an hop flavour. Wonderfully rough barley wine.
Ten years old. 2005 bottle in January 2016. Carbonation is gone and so is the hoppy roughness. A lot of port wine, dried fruit and caramel. Still very good.

Draught at Københavnske Øldage. Clear, copper body, and a minimal beige head, rapidly diminishing. Alcohol, sweetness, dried fruits and port on the nose. Alcohol, sweetness, dried fruits, caramel and some oxidation in the flavor. Really nice it is. Full body and a quite hoppy finish with a lot of warming alcohol. It was the 2004 vintage, but the oxidized flavor surprised me. All in all it is a nice beer, but almost too heavy. (070512)
