kind of sweet kind of coffee tasting. Poor qualty not like I expected more from Fax. Advice is to go for the 10% and get drunk faster.

yngwie (8718) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - FEB 24, 2008
Can. A clear, deep reddish brown beer with an off-white head. Sweetish, roasted aroma with dried fruits. Nice, but still lacking something. The flavor is a bit over the top with sweetness and roasted malt, as well as some alcohol. Sweetish, full body. Malty and alcohol finish with some roasted malt. It left the impression of being a malt liquor trying to be a bock, and it didn’t succeed. (080112)

This full-bodied danish dunkel is a warming, inviting pint of malty richness with a siren’s song of a velvet hammer glow after the third pint. A great brunette in a country noted for its blondes

Hazy brown with medium off white head. Aroma is sweet with malty and grassy notes. Same goes for the somewhat watery flavor...

500ml can-A dark brown ody with a small tan head and an aroma of malt, caramel, and sweetness. Taste of the same with a little burnt flavor comin on in the end. A nice tasting bock.

Pours a thick blackish brown liquid, not even close to opaque, but nice looking with a small light tan head. Smell is heavy malts and no bitterness or hops. Flavor is nice at start, caramel, roastiness, a bit of nuts. No bitterness. Finish is sort of unpleasant and sharp. Carbonation is nice, and it is pretty thick. Not nearly as bad as some of their other offerings.

Quevillon (1955) - Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, CANADA - DEC 21, 2007
Canette de 500 ml, acheté au LCBO d’Hawkesbury (12/12/ 07), bu ce soir. Brune acajoux, un peu de collet. Arome de malte légèrement roti, avec un soupson de noisette. Goût de caramel légèrement brulé et denoix malté, peu de sensation d’alcool.
