An excellent alternative to Porters and Stouts. Heavier than most, lots of taste.

Slick (1971) - Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA - FEB 15, 2004
Dark ruby color,small off white head that lasted for a nice amount of time then faded to leave a decent lace behind.The aroma was Malty,caramel and maybe some kind of dried fruit with a decent sweet side to it.Malty caramel taste with a good sweet side and maybe some fruit again,possible raisin.maybe some faint chocolate as well but then i might be pushing it on that one.Over all it's a pretty decent AD much better then some of the American versions i've tryed to date.Thanks go to Love_caissa for sending this nice brew my way.Well worth trying again.

JohnBarleycorn (537) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - AUG 23, 2003
Below a fairly transient, Horlicks-coloured head, the beverage is chestnut with flashes of scarlet. Sweet aromas of plain chocolate, coffee and rum liqueur lift out of the glass, tempting you to take a swig. Satisfyingly full-flavoured, there’s elements of chocolate and salt on the palate, with a nice balance between sweet and bitter. This is a well-rounded beer – you would be equally satisfied drinking a bunch or slowly savouring one, depending on your mood. This Carlsberg’s a keeper.

Dark yellow appearance. Creamy with a caramelly sweetness. A surprising amount of hops. Tried this at the Mortensen house in Grasten, DE with Anne in 2008. Bought at one of the beer stores across the German border.

Beautiful, dark colour and halfway sweet taste. It smells fabulous, but cant quite make it there in taste. A popular beer for inviting your (beer-) friends over.

Habanero (1233) - Tranbjerg, DENMARK - OCT 30, 2005
Dark ruby color. Medium size off-white, lasting head. Little nice malty aroma. The flavour is malty and fruity. Some bitterness in the aftertaste. All in all a drinkable lager.

beermouth (435) - Langeskov, DENMARK - MAR 12, 2007

GreatDane (100) - Ballerup, DENMARK - MAR 9, 2003
A strong taste of liquorice and caramel at the same time. An above average beer - probably one you learn to like more and more after each one you have
