330mL bottle, pours jet black with a medium tan / light brown head. Aroma is unusual, with roasted malt, earthy hops, and gingerbready, floral notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with earthy, floral hops, harsh roasted malt, and some coriander-like spiciness. Very spicy, pleasantly harsh, and quite bitter, but it works. Solid.

Black colour. Metallic aroma, and roasted malt. Extreme roasted malt character, very harsh on the palate. I remember the scandinavians being fond of strong roasty character, and indeed this is largely unbalanced. Unpleasant.

Smell of petrol, Parmigiano Reggiano, leather, armpit, dark malts, moderately oxidized. Good body; dark malts flavour, dark chocolate, salty, petrol, moderate oxidization, and funny candy touch.
Definitively too old, but funny beer to drink now, interesting.

Dark brown. Quite oxidized soy sauce notes on the nose, mushroom. Soft body, a bit light, but has an interesting soy sauce/mushroom accent. Fun -lots of age, but it's got some interesting elements. A lot of those oxidized notes are quite fun.
