NOTE: This is not really a rating. I’m converting my old notes over to BR. This is more like "check" for my own purpouses, that I have indeed drunk this beer at the time it was produced.

(Bottled, BBE 10/2004) Copper color with small, lacy head. The aroma is surprisingly pleasant: fruity, yeasty, slightly sweet and very much like tripel. In the sweetish-malty and fruity flavor, the burning alcohol shows through quite strongly, but not unbearably. Medium-bodied, oily and alcoholic, very warming palate with medium carbonation. Surprisingly full-bodied, tasty and pleasant for a malt liquour. If I ever wanted to get really, really drunk really, really fast, I’d definitely consider getting a six-pack of this :)

Bottled (BB 09/2004)
This is propably the strongest beer in Estonia. Amber color with medium creamy white head. Sweet, strong alcoholic and ashy aroma. Fruity malty, a bit roasted, alcohol burns through everything else. Wariming. This is actually better than expected, just high ABV hits too much.
