19th June 2008. 2006 bottle. A rich cloudy amber beer. Almost a creamy bock. Rich and sumptuos - a little chocolate just before the finish and a little banana in the finish.

Draught 2006 edition @SBWF 2006. Hazy nut brown, not much head. Yeasty, fruity, grassy nose. Fruity, yeasty, some peach, faint hops and yeast there. Propably too young - quite different than 2005 batch. (5/3/7/3/12 3.0)

330ml bottle, vintage 2007, bb.2018, after salad lunch at Tegners Gömställe. Enjoyed together with vintage 1998. A few, thin floaters on the surface of a hazy, dark amber body. Aroma of malts and sweet, dark fruits. Dried fruits in flavour with complementing malty sweetness. Yeasty notes beneath and hints of bitter fruits to the ending. Dangerous easy to drink. More rough on the palate and almost as great as the 1998-edition (happy drinking in Stockholm, 03.09.2009).

2005 bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a small, off-white head that goes leaving a murky brown body. Aroma of brandy brown sugar, raisins, and lots of yeast. Taste is raisins, brandy and yeast. Light to no carbonation, syrupy.

First big vertical rating.Vertical testing on June 14, 2008. Tried the 2005, 2006 and 2007 side by side. (Also the 2002, which might seem confusing)Thanks to deft to arrange the purchase from Systembolaget of these three (and to rlgk for the 2002)2005 - (33 cl bottle, BB 150921 - that would be 2015)Shady copper to brown color, light brown head. Sweet malty, vinous, raissin and alcohol scent. Sweet, licorice, raissin, malty, caramel, earth tones taste, very nice. Smooth mouthfeel with rather low co2 level. Low to medium bitterness. Sweet and raissin with caramel aftertaste.8/3/8/4/15=3.82006 - (33 cl bottle, BB 13 okt 16)Slight shady copper to brown color, rather smallish tan head. Sweet, fruity, malty, raissinish, chocolate, alcohol scent, also grainy. Sweet, sugary, malty, raissin taste. Medium to smooth mouthfeel, low bitterness.7/3/7/3/14=3.42007 - (33 cl bottle, BB W11 - 2008) I don’t like the new label, wish they would have stuck with the old oneClea rcopper color, medium big tan lasting head. Sweet, estery, phenolic scent. Banana, clove, sweet sugary as well. Sweet, spicy, clove, phenolic, medicinal, smoke and bitter taste. Thick smooth mouthfeel, medium to low bitterness. Warming mouthfeel. Sweet aftertaste.6/4/7/4/13=3.4When mixing the three in the same glass - Metallic scent! also sweet. Sweet phenolic taste. Medium mouthfeel and bitterness. Sweet raissin aftertaste.5/3/6/4/12=3.0It seems to improve with some aging, though the 2007 I’m a bit sceptical that it will get as good as the 2005. Also: Don’t mix them! Better to try them side by side.All in all, I think the 2005 aged about 3-4 years is the best of these, so my rating scores will reflect that as well.(33 cl bottle thanks to rlgk!)Labeled 9.0% ABV. Also states "Julkloster" and "God Jul" on it.BB 12.12.122002 vintageOn June 14, 2008Clear red, almost ruby but not quite, color, small tan head. Sweet caramel and subtle licorice with chocolate scent. Some alcohol and grainy also. Sweet, strong malty, biscut, caramel taste with some alcohol as well. Also warming alcohol present. Smooth mouthfeel with rather low co2-level, medium bitterness. Sweet, grainy and raissin aftertaste.I wish Slottskällans would have continued to manufacture this one. I also wish they had the guts, money, interest or whatever is lacking to brew more beers with a character making it worth while to drink.Please note that the 2002 version of this is supposed to be under this rating as well, however strange that might seem. The question has been discussed and here it belongs.7/3/8/4/15=3.7***Second big vertical rating.Started out at deft with a 33 cl bottle of 2012 and a 33 cl bottle of 2005. Before we were done we found a 33 cl bottle of 2007 in the fridge too! Then after reading up on how we tried them last time started looking further in the the fridge and found a 33 cl bottle of 2006 as well!So I first rated 2012 against 2005, then rated the 2007 with beer left from the first two. In the end rated the 2006 with beer left from the first three.Vintage 2012, 33 cl bottle thanks to deft! Sampled on April 21, 2012.

Alcohol, phenolic, clove, smoke, yeast, lactic, sweet, sugary taste. Medium to moussy mouthfeel. Phenolic smoke and clove, mixed with alcohol, aftertaste. Warming alcohol. Fairly low bitterness from hops, but does get sort of a bite from phenoles and yeast, mixed with the slcohol, too young still probably.6/2/6/3/12=2.9Vintage 2005, 33 cl bottle thanks to deft!

Also sweet, malty, fudge finish. Lable is horrible compared to 2005 and 2012.

Bottle: "Old" bready-malty aroma, a bit like old wine, sugary as well; cloudy, amber coloured, quite small off-white foam; full bodied, robust sweet flavour; chocolate and/or cacao in the full-sweet-fruity finish, rounded by some shy hops in the aftertaste. Weak aroma, full flavour..........

(Draught at Man in the Moon, Stockholm. Vintage 2006) Dark reddish brown colour, cloudy, with brief, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of dried fruit (prunes, figs), toffee and a hint of rust. Malty taste with dark fruit, spices, chocolate, toffee and a spicy bitterness in the finish. Balanced sweetness. Nice beer. Rerate: bottle, 2005 vintage, 24 Nov 2008. Reddish brown colour with brief, pale brown head. Slightly hazy with lots of sediment in the bottle. Malty nose with dark fruit, chocolate, toffee, cherries, prunes, dried figs and brown sugar. Malty, fruity taste with toffee, chocolate, dried fruit: raisins, figs and dates, brown sugar and a slightly spicy finish. Smooth and mellow mouthfeel with most of the carbonation gone. I’d say this has actually gained with maturation, it lost some of the sharp edge but is more rounded and smooth without losing character. Very nice one. 8/4/7/3/14
