750 ml bottle shared by Gregis. I believe he said he picked this up at Beertopia in Omaha (shameless plug for one of my favorite beer stores). Pour is clear brown ruby with a huge 4 inch off white head. Decent lace left behind. Aroma of chemical menthol, some maltiness behind that. Alcohol heat is evident. Dried fruit is the primary flavor initially - prunes, raisins, with some of the chemical graininess coming through. Aftertaste has residual alcohol. Overall this was just fine, just nothing really special. Thanks for sharing this one Greg. Gregis very generous.

Courtesy of Degarth. Pours hazy copper with wispy tan head. The aroma is fruit and malt sweetness moving into tart notes. Pretty mild. The taste is caramel, dark fruitiness with figs, prunes and raisins. Nice. It gets rose pedal-ish and swirls of sweet honey too. Seems very yummy.

From the "Open Eyes" tasting. 2006 Bottle with an entirely Danish label. Pours with a light brown head covering a dark brown body with tons of yeastys floating about. Aroma of alcohol, Grand Marnier, burbon, and dark fruits. Taste has some elements of oxidation, maple syrup, raisins, and clove. Still lively carbonation with a somewhat thin mouthfeel.

Bottled. Orangeish amber colour with huge slightly off-white head. Aroma is some yeast, fruits, alcohol and mild spicing. Flavour is fruits, spices, alcohol and yeast. While cold not the most exciting thing, but as it warms up it gets smoother.

A dark ruby, fizzy amber beer, with serious floaties (looks like there’s fish food in there) - aroma of plum, raisin, date, nutmeg, coriander, caramel, strong yeastiness, light wildflowers - fruity sweetness is nicely balanced by mild vinous character, some fruit skin tartness, and moderate warming spices - caramel, toffee, plum, yeast, figs - enormous fruit complexity - finishes with some orange and bright spices (coriander, ginger, and citrus peel) - really nicely done.

750 mL bottle. Pour is a dark brown with a massive head and a few scattered floaties. Aromas are sweet and have a touch of piney hops. Flavor is fairly sweet and mouthfeel is sticky. Toffee and honey flavors add sweetness, while fruity, orange flavors, yeast and some mild hops try (and fail) to cover the alcohol. Fairly disappointing compared to the others from Olfabrikken that I’ve tried.
