kiwianer (815) - Mönchengladbach, GERMANY - MAY 5, 2012
Farblich ist das Bier braun und die Schaumkrone hält mittelmäßig bis gut. Es riecht ziemlich hopfig, leicht dunkelmalzig, grasig-herb. Geschmacklich ist es süß, dunkelmalzig, spritzig-herb, schön Süffig! Im Nachgeschmack ist es herb, malzig nicht mehr so süß! Insgesamt ist es zwar gut, doch leider stört im ganzen Verlauf ein Alkoholisch-bitterer Nebengeschmack der leicht an billigen Alkohol erinnert, zum Glück ist er nicht sehr intensiv, nur im Nachgeschmack wird er ein bisschen stärker als zu Beginn. Fazit: Ohne diesen leicht störendem Nebengeschmack wäre es ein sehr gutes, so "nur" ein gutes und leckeres Schwarzes Schaf! Test vom 29.10.2010, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 11,11,12,10,13,11 - 11,10

POLK (1627) - Hørning, DENMARK - JAN 14, 2012
Tastes a bit like a mix between an old beer and a nice Christmas beer, but the slight dark flavor helps. Should probably have a chance as this beer was a half years old.
