750ml bottle. Dated May 10th, 2014 from lot 43, 2012. $2
Looks finely reddish brown, hazy to cloudy. Good head of foam.
Smells bitter, fruit tarty, a little bit of the sweet. Overall, kinda nasty.
Tastes worse than it smells. The tart fruit comes across as spoiled, the bitterness acentuates the ill feeling that I have for what it does to my palate. A few sweet notes here and there.
Mouthfeel is okay.
I paid $2 and feel overcharged.

750 ml bottle. Slightly unclear deep reddish body with a small and fast disappearing off-white head. Aroma is mainly malty with a faint hint of acidic berries. Flavor is sweet and sour, malt, fruit, acidic berries, cherry, yeast and low bitterness. It’s a bit unusually, at least as a beer for Christmas, it might even be some unintended flavors here, but this beer just suits me fine this time. (Cellered bottle)

Bottle, 75cl. A cloudy dark amber beer with a dense, light beige head leaving some lacings. The aroma has an acidic touch, with dried fruits, and a touch of fresh fruits. The flavor is a bit too acidic, with a faint roasted touch. Prunes, some raisins, a little bitterness and some fruity sourness. Full body and a pleasant, soft carbonation. Long finish with fruityness, some prunes and a sour touch. Rather uninteresting this one, wonder if the acidity is intentional. 141213

750ml bottle, 8 % abv, from Vinmonopolet Bestillingsutvalget. Unclear dark brown coloured body. Dotted spots on the glassware. Tiny off-white head. Aromas of brown malts and honey, with a little tartness beneath. Malt-fruity flavours of plums, sweet berries, some Christmas spices, and brown malts. Dry, tart and sweet ending. So and so. It did not managed to create any Christmas feel in August (shared with Stefan, Elisabeth and Finn, session at Finns, Tromsø 07.08.2014).

Flaske 750ml fra Vinmonopolet, Bestillingsutvalget. Fellesinnkjøp med Rune. Delt med ham, Snegurochka og TheCellarer på Nerstranda 7 Aug 14. Mørk amber. Uklar med tydelige partikler. Lavt filmskum. Beskjeden syrlig fruktaroma. Smaken er plommer og syrlige epler. Sikkert god til visse matretter. Veldig uklar siste kvelling.
