Oct 4, 2008 Small, crimped cap bottle. Pours very dark red-brown, nearly opaque, with a medium head. Aroma is somewhat subdued, one-dimensionally sweet, dark fruits, mostly raisin. Flavor is much better, surprisingly dry, perhaps apple. Some malty sweetness again, pretty nicely rounded. Bananas? Quite tasty. Palate is crisp and dry, with a short finish that fades away to a nice hint of bitterness.

Oct 3, 2008 330 ml mock "stoneware" glass bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 8.5%. Chestnut coloured beer with a big and lasting tan head. Lovely aroma of various fruits and spices, hints of farmhouse kitchen and red wine vinegar. The flavour is malty with moderate notes of dried fruits and spices. Nice one.

Sep 27, 2008 First rate, second bottle. Pours a deep red with a solid head that dissipates after a few moments but leaves a small ring. Aroma is of overripe fruit. Flavor is complex, sweet raisin almost. Lots of yeast flavor. Mouthfeel is present and stays with a nice warm alcohol touch. Excellent brew.
