A really nice beer, taste on bottle. Nice dark colour. Good balance between malt and hops. Nice aroma and a good body.

Dark red-brown colored with huge light brown head. Spicy and yeasty aroma with dominating hops, flowery amd licoricy notes also present. Interesting aroma with Yankee tones and licorice. Medium bodied. Flavor is more caramelly and flowery with fine hops. Dries with strong American hops and flowers, excellent aftertaste. Slightly unbalanced with strong aftertaste, still excellent beer.

bottle at Københavnske Øldage 2009 dark, almost black thick yellow head. mild aroma, licorice. flavor is licorice, roasted sutff, ample sugary sweetness, well crafted, well balanced.

UPDATED: MAY 10, 2013 Bottle at Barley Wine, Copenhagen. Pours dark brown with a foamy, tan head; the head creams up very nicely. Dusty cocoa nose with some dirt. Medium sweet flavor, lightly roasty, with some dark cocoa, toasted leaves, some light caramel and dark, sugary bread, and mild dark fruits. Medium bodied with average to lively carbonation, and it’s creamy, massaging. Mild sticky sweet finish with plenty of dusty cocoa, some light and dirty earthy bitterness. Light a nice, sweet Belgian brown ale. Not as sweet with caramel as a dubbel, though. Good one.

Bottle at Ølfestival 2008, Århus
Cloudy dark brown color; creamy head. It has a quite nice malt and chocolate aroma. Good body, good chocolate and malt flavor. A sweet Imperial Stout, not complex, but easy to drink.

Bottled@ Aarhus beerfestival 2008. Aroma is quite fruity with prunes and strawberry. Some licorice. Clear, dark coloured with an off-white head. Taste is sweet has some roqsty bitterness, some coffee, licorice and prunes. Nice beer.

Huge light-beige head over very deep-dark ruby beer; some UFO’s end of bottle. Sweet & earthy aromas, liquorice, roasted malts. Again roasted & earthy, peanuts, mild spicy-bitterish malts. Point of saltiness; faintly nutt retronasal. Medium bodied; bit light finish, faint dreamy texture. Light, but pleasing mork öl, less sweet than the nose suggested. Wasn’t the goal an Abbey dubbel?

Sample at Copenhagen beerfestival. Medium head with medium duration. Color is dakr amber. Aroma and taste are roast malt, caramel and licorice.

Bottle at Valhal. Dark brown colour with a beige head. Aroma and flavour of dark dried fruit, chocolate and roasted malt.
