3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Flaske (gave fra Mike) delt med Leiv og Ovesen mai-13: meget interessant med en juleøl 2007-årgang (mindst holdbar til okt-12), her må man dekantere forsiktig for å unngå klumpete, geleaktig bunnfall. Smaksmessig bærer den sin alder med eleganse, fylde og verdighet. Inspirerer til å oppsøke andre årganger!
4.8 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 19/20
Bottle at Deja Vu. Great, very intense. Aromas of caramel, chocolate, vanilla, and hints of herbs. Taste is sweet, with very long length. Palat eis creamy, and full bodied. Black, with a frothy head.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle, 50 cl, courtesy of Papsø. Unclear brown with a small beige head. Spicy and malty aroma of cinnamon, licorice, caramel and plums. Sweet, sticky and port-like with an almost dusty, rather dry finish. Hops has disappeared. Quite complex - might be "over the top", but still absolute drinkable, albeit I would prefer to do so in small quantities.

Cloudy brown beer. Dry palate. Immediate ginger and cinnamon. Aged tasting chocolate malt. Finishes very dry and spicy. Hard work.

3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle 50cl from Papsoe thanks a lot, a dark beer with good head and lacing. Nose is vinous, brown malt and spicy, very pleasant. Aroma is caramel and chocolate like, creamy, dense body, some oude bruin notes, a bit port like, sweet, licorice, oak, a very nice beer. Long dark chocolate finish.
1.7 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottle from the brewery. Batch 57. Black-bodied with little to no head but lacing on the side of the glass. Aroma of burnt caramel albeit with a tone of malty bread. Taste is mostly dark sweetness on the tongue. Flat medium-bodied with an oily texture and a somewhat bitter finish. In my view this beer didn’t age too well - at least compared to the Brøckhouse of the same vintage.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
500ml bottle, batch nr. 57, bought at Barley Wine in Copenhagen earlier this year (March). Fawn coloured head slowly fading over a deep, dark, rosewood body. Short-lived lacework on the glassware. Earthy malts to the nose added by a spiced chocolate touch. Flavour matches the aroma with chocolate malts, candy sweetness, orange hops and bittering spices towards the ending. Fine yuletide feel (Tromsø, 27.12.2010).
