Commercial Description:
This beer, robust in taste and strength (9%) is the tops for flavour. It has a fruity and spicy bouquet, it has a stark taste, between a sharp bitterness and a caramelised flavour. It has no sugar, and this pure malt beer oscillates between various tendencies which all round off the bitterness. It has a peppery taste at the back of the mouth and a sharpness on the tongue. It is active in the mouth and lets each flavour express itself individually. It is very active in the glass which gives it a full, lasting, head. It has a long conclusion and puts emphasis on an ever present bitterness but less supported by the caramel. The final impression is one of gingerbread without sugar.

Bottle: Light murky with a thin white head. Aroma is fruit and spice. Taste is a rusty nail with malts.

Poured a hazy copper color with an off white head. Aromas of malt, yeast, almond and caramel. Moderate sweet flavor of carmelised sugar and malt with some yeast. Medium body with meduim carbonation and a smooth creamy mouthfeel. Not their best but still very good.

Flaske. Gusher som jeg havde forventet. Meget sødt og krydret skum. Duften er krydret og man kan ane gæren. Flasken er et år over holdbarhedsdato men er stadig meget potent. Rigtig flot. Krydret gær går igen i smagen, med e godt bid til sidst. Lækker øl.

An immediate aroma of malt, alcohol, and fruit. Pours an amber color with a good-sized bubbly, white head. Flavor is complex... fruit, alcohol, sugary malts (caramel), some spice, and a slight bitterness. Very enjoyable. 1 pt. 9.4 oz. bottle.

Bottle: Hazy, deep orangey coloured, some floaties visible, smaller off-white, persistent foamy layer; distinctive almondy-nutty aromas, backed by some caramel and a shy sourish fruitiness; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium to full bodied, creamy MF; solid almondy-bitter finish with an increasing bitterness in the aftertaste. Can’t help, but this reminds me a bit of a diluted cough-syrup..............

33 cL bottle, trade with DeDollewaitor. Pours clear orange to amber with lots of huge yeast sediments, not really an inviting look of a beer. Huge off-white to orange head. Light caramel and slight metallic aroma. Malty, slight metallic and vaguely pepperish flavour. Ends with a mild pepperish note. Interesting, but I’m not impressed :(

Deep clear amber with a disappearing thou huge head. Complex mix of sweet maltiness, des rocs yeast and a good balancing bitterness. Drinking it at less than 10° could be really dangerous.
