50 cl bottle. Rated on 24.10.2008
Aroma has lots of alcohol and some solvent too with toffee and malt. Flavour has lots of stinging alcohol, some sweet malt and toffee. Way too much alcohol here.

500ml bottle. Pours clear golden with a large head. Aroma is very sweet and malty, a bit sickly. A bit sickly in the mouth too, sweet malt throughout, some apples on the finish. Lots of carbonation. Alright, drinkable, but I wouldnโt bother again.

Bottle. Amber beer with a soon disappearing fizzy head and a fizzy body. The aroma is weakly malt and has a hint of coriander. The flavour is strongly bitter and hopped with a malty quality. Overall a fairly basic but satisfactory strong beer.

Bottled, thanks oh6gdx! Haz amber, rocky head. Spicy and resiny hops strike first. Dryish with bready malt and evident slivovic-like alcohol. Notes of honey dew before a finish with plenty of resiny bitterness. Primitive and sketchy perhaps, but not without itโs pleasing moments either.

Bottled (from Alko, ABV 8.2%). Coppery amber colour with mediumsized foamy off-white head. Some lace. Aroma is hops, raisins, some slight red sour berries as well as some mild notes of alcohol. A bit doughy notes as well. Flavour is quite strange. Strong grassy hops dominating the background, while alcohol, some really sweet nectary/sappy mess is up front. A bit toffeeish notes as well while drinking. Alcohol gives a nice burning touch to the grassy and hoppy notes. Aftertaste has alcohol, nettles, toffee and some grass. A bit like a sweet barley wine meeting a standard dry grassy bitter.
