Draught. Citric paint aroma. Black colour, small brown head. Nice thick mouthfeel. The flavour is citric in much the same way as their other beers, but the flavour here is good. Very late roasted coffee flavour. OK level of alcohol. Roast barley bitterness in the aftertaste.

Draught. Almost clear dark golden colour. Small white head. Sweet and fruity aroma and flavour. The fruitiness is slightly citric. Disappointing aftertaste, a little bad bitterness on the sides of my tongue. Rather boring, but not too bad.

Draught, 9.0%. Citric aroma, yoghurt style. Quite cloudy, dark reddish colour. Small, but seemingly stable light brown head. The flavour is quite bitter, but balanced by sourness. The alcohol is well-hidden. The mouthfeel is not impressive for a barley wine, but OK.

(Draught, Stockholm Beer Festival, 30 Sep) Golden yellow colour with amber notes, firm white head. Malty, bready, clean nose with notes of hay. Full malty, bready taste. Initial notes of malt sweetness turning into a finish with a well balanced grassy bitterness. Not exceptional, but very well constructed.

Draught, named Prototyp X at festival (not Y), but will be renamed (I suggested Kungen or Kejsaren). Almost opaque black, decent tan head. Cold coffee, faint note of vegetables or herbs. Roasted, dark toasted malts, very soft mouthfeel. Toasted, light aftertaste. Balanced and wellmade impy.

Draught. Golden color, off-white head. Hayeish aroma with vegetables. Hay and vegetables also in the flavors. Quite unfermented feeling here. But drinkable - re-rate needed.

Draught. Very muddy brown, no head. Grassy, hoppy, vegetables in the very dry nose. Full-bodied, woody, sugary-fruity flavor, quite yeasty. Dry aftertaste. Maybe need to rest a bit more (eg. in the bottle).
