3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Dark copper colored. Very sweet flavor with a light spiciness. The malt characteristics where very complex and the alcohol was very high.

[Expired 1½ years ago] The aroma is strong and sweet with notes of sirup, caramel, wood, and yeast. The color is nut brown and it has a fine bubbly orange head, though quite fast disappearing. The flavor is strong too. It is rather malt sweet with notes of caramel, sirup, wood, yeast, and nuts while the alcohol makes the background. It ends on a slight bitterness - not quite enough to balance the sweetness. In the aftertaste it is alcohol and sirup that lingers. An OK beer but just a bit cloying with the sweet sirupy flavors. Thanks to Alex (fiulijn) for trading this one with me.

(Bottle 33 cl) Used to be the world’s strongest brew - now just one of the strongest... Beautiful, deep amber colour, rather small, white head. Delicate almost sherry-like notes, some sweetness and a lightly smoked character reminding me of whisky. Loads of alcohol, but never unpleasant. Great beer indeed. 040899

Bottled. Deep golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is hoppy, malty and slight alcohol in a very nice balance. Flavour is alcohol, sweet malts and some hops, also in a nice mix. Even though being 11%, the alcohol is not disturbing.
