Medium feeling body but still full feeling malts. Slightly sweet finish. hirigalzkar (604), Stockholm, Sweden

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 20, 2009 Bottle from systembolaget. Small thin lace over a nice brown red ale. Malty aroma with a flowery first aroma that quickly dissapears. Malty taste with a sharp alcohole tart taste and a sweet maltyness that isn’t balances and gives this beer a small drinkability. ekstedt (2457), Göteborg, Sweden

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 14, 2009 Bottle. Dark brown with a medium-sized tan head. The aroma is roasted malt. Malty, roasted, some coffee and sweetness. Medium to full-bodied, dry and some alcohol in the finish. Quite tasty, but I was expecting a bit more from this. Chaasrainer (13), Finland
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 13, 2009 Updated: Dec 22, 2009Appearance is very dark brown, you can see some red shades against the light. The head is beige, it lasts quite long and leaves a little lacing also. Aroma is, in my opinion, surprisingly mild with bready malts and sweet liquorice. Flavor is also very bready and malty, slightly roasted with hints of coffee and brown sugar. Also a bit bitter and dry in the end. Palate is quite full and sticky. A nice doppelbock.

Malt, some chocolate and dark fruits in the aroma. Quite similar notes in the flavour too. Aftertaste of bitter hops and roasted malt.
