Dark amber color; generous head. Original aroma: malt, caramel, light wallnuts, chocolate. Good body structure, quite dry: malt, some caramel, light wallnuts; getting sweeter at the end. Quite bitter palate (with some caramel, not extraordinary).

A black beer with a great brown head. The aroma is faint of liqurice and chocolate. The flavor is smooth, slightly smoked - pretty sweet to start out, but then a bit watery in the middle for a porter, and then it ends with a nice bitterness. The smoke lingers on the lips.

Golden color. Very light malt mouthfeel over the average, and stronger/bitter final. But I will not look again for it...

Re-rate bottled. Dark black with brown head. More mature than when I first tried it. Some fruitiness up front, then loads of coffee and licorice. The malt profile is still kind of simpistic though. Sampled the pre-release draught at Oliver Twist, Stockholm.
Dark black with brief beige head. Rich chocolate aroma. Full bodied and rather sweet, but not very firm. Big on licorice flavour with an odd note of plastic. Molasses and salt in the finish. (7/4/6/3/12)

Very malty and quite sweet. The hoppy bitterness comes late. ...............

The aroma is strange, mixing some soap, flowers and hop. The mouthfeel is weak, with some caramel and light hop touch. Poor.

Beautiful amber color, thick head. Nice aroma, roasted malt, hop. Flavor dominated by the roasted malt, pretty dry, with a very light smokey note in the background. Pretty strong and quite long final.

Golden color. Pleasant hop aroma. Pretty good taste, some malt and hop, a light residual sweetness, an equilibrated and pretty aromatic palate.
Enjoyable, but not impressive.

Red amber color, little head. Very nice hop aroma, also fruity (red grapes, oranges). Balanced between malt and bitterness, but a rather weak body; and a very light metallic taste. Good final: bitter, dry and enough aromatic. Good, enjoyable bitter (dry).

A little unclear dark yellow beer with no head. It has a slightly sour wheatbeer like aroma. The flavor is a little flat and that of malted wheat and orange. Not a wheat beer, that I'll travel to get. Second time around I couldn't even finish the beer - only the second beer I've sampled I couldn't finish.

A dark amber almost brown beer with an OK head. It has a nice ''ale'' aroma - and a good slightly flat ale taste. A really good beer.
