[At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] A pale orange-brown beer with thin but dense off-white head. The aroma is sweet with primary notes of caramel, but also some slight roasted nutty notes. The flavor is lightly sweet combined with light notes of nuts, oranges, and citrus, leading to a dry end. The body is thin. Boring.

[At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] A hazy orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of cinnamon and pumpkin - both very powerful notes. The flavor is sweet and again with powerful notes of cinnamon and pumpkin, but the body is thin. To me this is a Christmas beer - drink it with spiced Christmas cookies.

Dark copper brown, small tanned head. Aroma is dominated by brown sugar. Light to medium-bodied. Typical brown ale sweetness. Starts promising but flavors fade out in the finish.

Nut brown, small white head. Mild toffee-sweetish aroma, lightly hoppy. Medlum-bodied. Malty with gently hops in the finish. Almost more like a pilsener than an ale/bitter kind of beer.

Pale yellow, small white head. Sugary, almost butterscoth - diacetyl aroma, slightly lemony. Light, carbonated palate, toffee flavors. Notes of soda in the finish. Light-weight also qualitywise. Very overrated here.
