3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: OCT 26, 2006 Re-rate draught at Söderbärke Ölfestival and Glenfiddich Warehouse, Stockholm. The green apples are replaced by milky chocolate. The mouthfeel is now more rounded. Much improved comparing to what I had at Stockholm Beer Fest.
Draught at Stockholm Beer Festival Black, small beige head. Aroma of spicy hops, licorice and green apples. Medium sweet with light-medium body and clean mouthfeel. Some chocolate before a salty, tarry finish. Too much green apples. [4/4/5/3/9 = 2.5]

2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
UPDATED: JAN 4, 2007 Draught at SBWF 06 as Höstbryg. I wonder if this is the one. The aroma and flavour are sour, but OK balanced out by some malt.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught at Bishop’s Arms
Black color; creamy head. Nice and delicate aroma of roasted malt, with Digestive cookies and light hops. Medium-light body, the flavor is basically from the roasted malt, with a touch of acidity deriving. The final is bitter with too much burnt sugar. Not bad, but too monodimensional for me.

Draught @ Bishop’s Arms, Malmö. Pours a black colour with a tan head. Roasted malty coffee aroma, with some hoppy hints. Sweet roasted malty flavor with hints of coffee, chocolate and hops. Dry roasted malty finish with some bitterness.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught (as Höststout 2006).
Opaque black, good steady tan head. Toasted malts, coffee notes in the aroma. Light palate, cold coffee notes. Some hops in the aftertaste. Good roasted aftertaste.

UPDATED: JUN 25, 2007 Draught (Pikkulintu, Helsinki, Svenska Dagar 2006).
Very bitter aroma, and taste fills the mouth and lasts a long time. Ginger prominent. Good for any time of year.
