(Bottle 25 cl) 15% ABV version. Fully golden with a dense and pretty head. Naturally quite alcoholic - but not really any worse than a European strong lager - with a high degree of sweetness . Has a spirituous almost sherry-like edge. To be enjoyed in very small quantities. 191201

Bottle. Malty alcoholic smell. Pours a golden color with little head (possibly because I spilled the beer all over me...). I’ve had plenty of high alcohol content beers and this one was not smooth. It wasn’t what I expected. It’s barely drinkable to me.

Strong beer with lots of malt and alcohol, and notmuch else. No complexities or tones, although it is smoother than you light expect from the amount of alcohol.

At 13% you can smell the alcohol. Golden in color. Despite the high alcohol it tastes extremely smooth. Big malt flavor. Small bottle and poured into a small glass 1 bottle splite perfectly for 2. A nice sipping beer. Get it at Redlight Redlight in Winter Park, Fl

Light copper color with small head that dissipates in minutes. Strong malty aroma with evidence of alcohol. Strong alcoholic taste that overpowers almost all other taste. Bottom line - there are other high-abv beers that have a much more complex and better taste than this one!

super malty beer. sweet. i thought it had a horrible aftertaste. only had an 8 oz bottle and i almost stuggled to finish it. had to take it in small doses. too much at once was overwhelming because of the taste. can’t detect the alchohol content that much.

Bottle. Small size ivory head that mostly diminished, fine-small sized bubbles, lacing was very sparse, carbonated, hazy, and an orange hue. Nose was malty, caramel and alcohol. Malty, sweet, hints of bananas and spiciness, and vinuous. Burning sensation in the mouthfeel. Medium body. Worthy of a try if you like this beer style.
