Aug 13, 2008 bottle, traded with jeverszeuge. Very dark brown colour, small but creamy beige head. Complex aroma of malt, roasetd malt and caramel. Very smooth mouthfeel, well-balanced flavours of roasetd malt, caramel, toffee and honey. Just the right sweetness, well rounded with a good portion of aromatic hops. A very nice beer.

Jul 27, 2008 Dark opaque brown, small and fizzy brown head. Sweet syrupy nose, some coffee and alcohol. Extremely alcoholic flavor, little burned malts, dry coffee and a bit vinous finish. Watery, hollow palate. I just wonder how they can make the 7,8% ABV shine out this way. I guess you have to really use malts to make a good impy. Syrup, water and yeast just don’t go that far.

Jun 8, 2008 330ml bottle at The Carlsberg Visitors Centre, Copenhagen. Ink-black body under a beige, two-finger head. Rather weak in aroma with hints of dark malts. Smoky, dark malts in flavour supported by bittersweet liquorice. A decent porter, I would say (shared with Finn Arvid, 29.05.2008).

May 9, 2008 Bottle. Pours a black colour with a beige head. Aroma is very smokey - bacon, fläsksvålar and meat stock. Flavour has some sweetness. Loads (and I mean LOADS!) of bacon, fläsksvålar and meat stock once again. A hint of bitterness. Holy smoke (pun intended) this beer was really interesting and funny! It got way too meaty for me though. Try it!
