For me one proper and honest beer review is more worth than 100 ticks without any relevant content. It’s all about respect for the beer and the craftmanship behind. I will always try to do my best for a proper rating than playing the number game.

Backlog May 2009. Deep reddish-brown body under a dense, beige head. Aroma has light roasted dark malt, beef-stock and coffee. Taste is dark, roasted malt, some caramel, some chocolate and moderate bitterness. Medium body with average aftertaste. Not great, but not bad either, quite nice in a way without pushing any limits.

Bottle @ home. Unclear golden body under a white head. Aroma and taste are mostly ginger. I guess this is a matter if you like ginger beer or not. Strong on ginger in aroma and taste, not too sweet, refreshing.

Bottle @ home. Black body under a small, disappearing beige head. Strong and delicate aroma of dark malt, coffee, dry fruit, some wood and smooth whisky. Taste is rich, nice and surprisingly smooth for a beer at this strength. Sweet, dark malt, dark chocolate, dry fruit, smooth quality coffee, hint of wood and well-integrated smooth whisky flavour. Body in perfect balanced, and that goes for the flavours as well, with long lasting sweet, warming aftertaste. Pure joy.
