Nice to try one of these, something that I haven’t done before this. 6% impy? Nah. But let’s see what it’s all about. Dark brown/black body with an ENORMOUS off white head. Slightly smokey aroma of... Eh. Lentils or chickpeas. Strange. Fava beans, coffee and chocolate in the soft, peany malty taste. Lovely, pillowy mouthfeel, but... strange. Damn strange.

Bottle. Clear amber liquid with small to medium off-white head. Aroma of grain, sweet corn, vanilla, vegetables, bread, biscuit and lots of phenols. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter with notes of corn, vanilla, grain, vegetables and bread. Light to medium bodied with medium carbonation. Just wrong. This isn’t a bitter at all. Lots of weird flavours.

Bottle. Hazy amber liquid with small to medium off-white head that dissipates fast. Aroma of biscuit, cooked vegetables, cloves, pepper, herbal hops and booze. This smells like a bad weissbier. Taste is dry and medium bitter with a weird sourness and very metallic feel. Very grainy, husky and a bit vegetative. Light bodied with medium to high carbonation. This is bad. Really bad. Not totally disgusting though.

Bottled (thanks rlgk!). Amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is quite spicy with some slight toasted notes. Flavour is spices, some roast and mild rye bready notes. Balanced, but a bit thin as for the palate.

Bottle from Systembolaget, e-order in January 2013. Hazy light copper with an enormous white head. Weak aroma of apples, malt and some yeast. The taste was also on the weak side. Malt and caramel, also some apples. The finish was dry with notes of soap.
