3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Flaske: Brunsort klar øl med et fint skumhoved. Solid duft af let brændt malt, en del humle og whisky. Faktisk alle de tre ting man forventer. Smagen er igen fint balanceret imellem de tre stilarter og fungerer udmærket. Der mangler bare lidt for at trække den helt op at ringe.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Near black pour with minimal head. Nice bitter aroma and flavor. Super ashy finish. Tastes like you just ate a cigar.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Stockholm Beer & Whiskey 2012: Trevlig doft av fat. Smaken är lite mer diskret med små kaffetoner och annars inget märkvärdigt.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 15/20
Real ale, drunk at the real ale festival at in de wildeman in Amsterdam. Dark cola body, no head. Light, warm aroma. Taste strong, sweett, liqurice, with a great bitter finish.

4.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Big thanks to my secret santa for this one! Pours an oily brown color with a khaki ring of foam. Smells like salt water taffy. Tastes of rubber, ash, and wonderful. Excellent marriage of hops and char.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle@Home. Chocolate, licorice, malts, light sour, fruity aroma with a hint of whisky. Ruby colour, light brown head, good lace. Sweet, bitter, loads of whisky, licorice, red berries. Dry mouth feel. Bit out of balance and too much whisky for me.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark brown with lasting beige head. Roasted malts and coffe bitterness dominate the aroma and taste. Full-bodied beer with medium carbonation. Unfortunately there’s not much Bowmore to be found in the taste. Little more complexitiy would improve this beer.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Pours a dark, hazy brown colour with an one finger tanned head. Aroma of coffee, roast, grapefruit, pines, resin and hops. Flavour has a lot of sweetness to it, I expected or hoped for some more whisky, but it wasn’t there. Still a really good beer. Maybe it’s better that it had not that much whisky notes. It’s nicely located on the background.. very good beer.
