pivo (2486), Germany Jan 12, 2004 I was intrigued by this beer, particularly the high alcohol content. Sweetish nose with a big whiff of alcohol, rich gold color, tall spongy head. Sweet honey malt and maybe something like raspberry in the background. A faint tinge of hops at the very end. Alcohol is very noticeable in the swallow. Full rich body and a creamy mouthfeel. Hildigöltur (5052), København Ø, Denmark Sep 22, 2001 A very good and powerful beer. Almost impossible to drink more than a sixpack. Yogi_Beera (2404), Hamburg, Germany Jan 10, 2004 Dark golden color. Fizzy carbonation, no head. Sweet hoppy grass and cereal nose. Sweet, candy malt taste. A lot of alcohol, amost like a brandy. yespr (6259), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 10, 2007 33 cL bottle. Pours golden orange and clear with a diminishing white head. Slight sweet corn aroma with an alcohol presence. Full bodied. Thick caramel malty flavour with a slight sweetness and clear leveled upwards by alcohol without becoming burning only a bit warming. Warming slight malty finish. A very berry like notes throughout. This was my favourite at the 1996 beer election by Carlsberg, perhaps partly because we (I and my best buddy Carsten) could get this for 10 dkr at A-vej/KVL (incl. the official master brew drinking-glass I still have), 4 beers later and our friday was fullfilled. I rarely drink this today, but it certainly is well brewed. HansJM (358), Norway Nov 21, 2001 A little too much alcohol for the rest of the brew, but it’s not bad at all. Heavy, of course, and long.
