Dark chestnut/brown color with very small head, low carbonation. Some aroma of caramel and dust. Soft mouthfeel; the body is thinner than expected; there is some caramel flavor, light smoke, and already too much oxidization.
Not bad, but declining.

Bottled@The 1st Vaasa CS/ES beer session (thanks JP). Ambery brown colour with mediumsized slightly off-white head that leaves some lace. Aroma is caramel malts, some slight floral and grassy notes as well as mild plumlike notes. Flavour is being quite much the same as the aroma, but is a bit more bitter than the aroma would have promised.

Århus2008. 50 cL bottle. Pours slight cloudy to golden amber with a lacing white head. Dense fruity and solid malt aroma. Slight oxidised too. Flavour is sweet and fruity with a solid caramel base. Light hops spiced in addition to this. Goes into a slowly more dry finish. Light fruity note lingering in the far finish.

500ml bottle @ Cardinal. Dark red/brown body with a short lasting off-white head. Aroma is roasted malt, some dry fruit and a gentle but distinct acidic touch (maybe the same as described as cellarish background in another rating). Flavor is roasted malt, dry fruit, a bit sour and alcohol. Relatively heavy body, almost a bit on the unbalanced side, but definitively an interesting ale.

Bottle. Pours a clear, dark, reddish brown with a small but consistent, beige head. It left lacings as well. It has a roasted, coffee-ish nose with a distinct cellarish background. Some alcohol and dried fruits as well. Maybe a bit cellerish, but definately pleasant as well. Flavorwise it starts roasted, but the cellar soon hits the roof of the mouth, and is followed by dried fruits, alcohol and some bitterness and licorice. The bitterness comes stronger towards the end, and has company with alcohol and sweetish dried fruits. Even though it is a quite sweet beer, it feels a bit too thin, and could use a fuller body. The warming feeling is nice though. And maybe I would like it to be not so cellarish, but after all it gives it a distinct flavor profile that makes it different from most other ales, and I like it.
