3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 lusikka (4046) - Tampere, FINLAND - JUN 12, 2012

Pours a dark amber colour without a head. Aroma of sweet malts, ripe fruits and some weak herbal notes. Flavour of sweet toasted malts, herbs, strong grassy hops and some alcohol in the back. Low carbonation and a vinous, warming, malty finish. Some similarities with English strong ales. Has aged well.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 kiwianer (2315) - Mönchengladbach, GERMANY - MAY 28, 2012
Röstmalzige Farbe, Schaumkrone ok. Mittelstärker röstmalziger Geschmack, süß-lakritzartig, die 7,6% Alkohol schmeckt man deutlich. Nachgeschmack ein kleines bisschen herb und lakritzartig.
Fazit. Der süßliche Lakritzgeschmack und der starke Alkoholische Geschmack gefällt mir bei diesem Bier nicht so gut. Trinkbar aber dürfen die Mönche in Zukunft von mir aus gerne selber trinken.
