50 cl bottle. Rated on 29.11.2008
Aroma is rather malty and bready with hints of sweet caramel. Flavour is very malty too with lot of christmas spices. Not very pleasant, but drinkable anyway and goes well with scandinavian christmas foods.

50 bottle, Alko. Pours dark brown color with a thin, but lasting beige head. Aroma is mostly of roasted malts. The flavour is more roasted malt with raisins and dark chocolate. Alcohol shines through a bit too much in the finish.

Bottle, 7.0%. Clear dark brown colour. Small tan head. Good roasted flavour, slightly vinous. Balanced by good sweetness, not too much, though. Full mouthfeel, slightly swelling. A little soy sauce in the finish.

50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown and with a redish glare, holds a small off-white head. Dry spiced and roasted malty aroma with a mild hoppy note. Smooth roasted malt flavoured with a mild bitterness and a nice caramel malty note. Smooth malty and slight bitter finish. Good one.

Dark ruby with a disappearing off-white head. Sweet and perfumed aroma, with caramel, apple, and dried fruit. Candy sweet flavour with some maltiness, quite full bodied.

(50 cl bottle from Systembolaget) Clear dark brown with reddish hints color, medium size creamy tan head. Milk, yogurt, malt and alcohol scent, also sweet and some sweet licorice mixed with toffee and fudge. Sweet, alcohol, slightly roasted taste with a subtle coffee aftertaste. Alcohol is a bit too evident though. Borderline big mouthfeel, rather smooth. Medium light bitterness. Should improve with a bit of aging, might try that.
