Sigmund (3495) - Hafrsfjord, NORWAY - MAR 3, 2006
250 ml bottle, named "Belzebuth Pur Malt Extra Forte", ABV was 13%. In Nice, France. Deep golden colour, low head. Malty sweet and alcoholic aroma, notes of molasses. Flavour is sweet and alcoholic, but the beer is not undrinkable.

jmuhops (666) - Winchester, Virginia, USA - FEB 21, 2006
Pours light amber with a small head. Malty, alcoholic aroma, that is strangely similar to that of a Baltika Malt Liquor I once had. Sickeningly sweet flavor, with a huge alcohol presence. Tastes like a hard candy your alcoholic grandpa had been soaking in home-distilled liquor for a couple weeks. This is ugly.

Bottle shared with blankboy, HogTownHarry & tupalev - courtesy of blankboy. Pale golden colour with no head. Aroma is sweet and fruity, with strong alcohol notes. Flavour is sweet as well, with a sticky body and notes of hard lemon candy and harsh whiskey. Not very pleasant...

imzugzug (103) - Bechtelsville, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 16, 2006
13% clearly displayed on the label along with a date 28 09 06. Guessing that’s a best by date. Wow, nice golden color with a very slight head. Sweet smelling alcohol. Tase was similar to the aroma with alcohol being smack-you-in-the-face-upfront. Not well balanced. One was more than enough of this puppy.

TomDecapolis (4000) - Skippack, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 12, 2006
13% alcohol printed right on the neck of the bottle. Pours a slightly hazy orange amber with a small white head that left spotty lacing. Aroma of grains. As if you walked into a feed store, or better yet if you were in an Amish mans barn (trust me I was in one the other week). Maybe also some caramel malt. Flavor of caramel, yet overall just a watery sweetness.

waolsen (1296) - Littleton, Colorado, USA - FEB 11, 2006
13% alcohol. You just know that this one isn’t going to be a relaxing sipper. Floral, alcohol aroma. Carmel and malts almost match the taste of alcohol. Now I know why the devil is laughing on the label. The French aren’t that bad afterall.

Deep gold, large lasting white head.Tiny intense bead.Corny sweet malt taste, harsh alcohol bite overpowers everything. Good lace Not at all pleasant
