Clear copper with a filmy off-white head. Aroma is slightly grainy, bit of alcohol and sugary sweetness. Massive carbonation hides a lot of the flavours, but some decent toasty notes and winey alcohol come through. Perhaps if you could imagine a swedish 7.2% lager mixed 70/30 with a splendid toasty marzen you could picture this beer quite well. Alcohol comes through like a steam train in the finish, which is wierd considering its only 5.9%. One of the more interesting falcons.

500 ml bottle. Thin beige head leaving a ring of foam sticking to the glass. Clear, dark amber body. Faint aroma of malt and some dry dark fruits. Sweet fruitiness and malt in the flavor. Modest hopbitterness. Light-bodied for the style. Slight bitter and rather sourish finish.

UPDATED: MAY 22, 2009 [Bottled] Dark amber with a fine head. Malty aroma with faint notes of liquotice. Brief malty flavour. A sharp, metallic bitterness follows. Just about drinkable.

Bottled. Brown with a large, short andoff-white head. Metallic nose with vegetables. Rather sweet and a pungent bitterness. Also some alcohol coming through.

UPDATED: JUL 3, 2007 Bottle: Deep clear red amber colour,creamy head. Aroma of malt, and has a bit sournes, and metalic,in the end.( Is this a Falcon Bayersk in a sort of way?) Flavor is almost the same as the aroma. Thin mouth feeling,smouth maltyness,a bit citic/bitternes mixed finish. Thin to medium body, for a beer who has 5,9%!. Short finish.

Amber, reddish, ok offwhite head. Malty aroma. Malty flavor, a bit sugary and with quite a discreet finish.

UPDATED: MAR 27, 2008 Bottled. Dark reddish brown, average head. Metallic fruity nose. Sweet with plums, syrup and metal mixed wth boiled vegetables. Raw and unrefined with aggresive sticky mouthfeel. Low on hops and way too sweet. Unpleasant in almost every way. Garbage!

(50 cl bottle, beer 4 on this years Easter Beer tasting session at Marsiblursi’s place) Clear dark brown color, big fluffy tan head. Thin acidic and sweet scent. Very sweet sugary taste and aftertaste. Medium mouthfeel, low bitterness. Spicy and a bit vomit aftertaste.

(Bottle) Pours redish brown. Malty aroma with a tiny roastiness and some crisp bread. Hints of raw egg. Sweet, malty flavour with a white sugar and light dry finish. Hints of hops in both the aroma and flavour. A bit unclean.
