yngwie (8718) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - APR 9, 2007
Can. (10% ABV version)Clear, straw with a small white head. Sweet nose with malt and notes of hay and grain. It has a sweet and malty flavor with alcohol. A bit grainy maybe. Thin to medium, warming mouthfeel. A decent beer, regarding the alcohol level. I still don’t see the meaning of these beers. (070331)

In Exeter, Devon, England. A little indian shop still sells the 10% version. I like it. At £1.10 for 0.5 Litre it is value for hard earned money! As a tap beer it would cause quite a kerfuffle.

harrisoni (9608) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - DEC 13, 2006
33cl bottle from Carrefour, Calais. Gold with rocky thick white head. Well it smells like a lager, it tastes like a lager and it finishes like a lager, but with some hot alcohol noticeable. I really do have a soft spot for these European strong lagers and this fits into that category perfectly. Slightly creamy aroma with a touch of citrus hops. Fine in mouth, some of that alcohol is clearly present and then some quite tasty citrus hop on end. I’ve had worse. Carbonation is fine and not overly metallic. Super.

TheJester (1230) - Peterborough, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 5, 2006
UPDATED: JUN 21, 2008 500 mL can. 10%. Gold with abundant creamy, persistent head. Very active carbonation. Aroma of bruised apples and straw. Flavour of alcohol and sweetness. Get the hops when I burp. This beer really only has one purpose.

Can. Bright clear yellow colour with huge white head. Plastic aroma. malty falvour, alcohol eviden in mouthfeel.
