| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 29, 2007 Updated: Jul 29, 2009 12/15/2007: Scaldis Prestige is mostly clear and has a honey color, large foamy off-white/beige head, and a high level of carbonation (but not overly so). The beer is dry, but has a slight residual sweetness, an oaky woodiness, some light fruit, and refinded alcohol. It is bubbly in the mouth, but isn’t too fizzy and almost has a slightly creamy texture to it.

Tasting Notes
Aroma: Caramel, a bit of soy sauce, toffee, vinegar.
Appearance: Pours a murky brown color (I got the bottom of the bottle) with a tin foamy head.
Flavor: Caramel and toffee malt, fermented apples, oak, some light butter flavor as well.
Palate: Medium light body with a creamy, smooth, and milky texture.
Overall: A fanstastic beer that is quite rich and complex. Well worth the $45/bottle, but is probably best reserved for special occasions!

9/10/2008: Scaldis Prestige has a sweet candi and fruit aroma. Actually, the aroma reminds me of a highly aged fig blasamic. It is cloudy with a large, puffy, beige head. The beer is dry with an obvious high level of alcohol. It tastes fruity and malty with complexities including caramel, whisky, and and definite nots of wood. This beer has a medium body and is not fizzy, but more like sticky on the palate. It is very good overall.
