(50 cl bottle from Systembolaget) Clear dark brown with reddish hints color, medium size creamy tan head. Milk, yogurt, malt and alcohol scent, also sweet and some sweet licorice mixed with toffee and fudge. Sweet, alcohol, slightly roasted taste with a subtle coffee aftertaste. Alcohol is a bit too evident though. Borderline big mouthfeel, rather smooth. Medium light bitterness. Should improve with a bit of aging, might try that.

Apr 3, 2008 Dark ruby brown, quite thick off-white head. Nose has rye & roasted malts, light smoky notes. Flavor is syrupy malts, tobacco and raisins. Finishes dry with balancing bitterness. Medium to full bodied, sticky palate. A bit tangy carbonation. Surprisingly full & nicely bitter bock.

Mar 9, 2008 Smells a bit like boiled vegetables and butterscotch. Sweet and a bit unbalanced in taste, notes of boiled ham. Not a favourite.
