oh6gdx (16047) - Vasa, FINLAND - JUL 15, 2008
Bottled. Slightly hazy reddish amber colour with big fluffy/foamy head that lasts for a while. Leaves some lace. Aroma is sweet alcohol, quite earthy and mildly spicy. Flavour is caramel malts, mild metal, some spices and quite much earthyness. Finish is quite dry.

JohnnyOS (646) - Golden, Wisconsin, USA - JAN 20, 2008
Pours amber with light tan head. Overly sweet aroma of caramel malts and light spice. Flavor matches aroma, but adds fruit. Light bitter finish.

Marsiblursi (2684) - Göteborg, SWEDEN - JUN 19, 2007
(Bottle, thanks larsniclas ) Pours amber. Sweet aroma of fudge and caramel. Some light spiciness. Also some dried fruits and sweet fresh fruit. Sweet caramel flavour with some light fruity notes. Tiny spicy in the flavour as well. Soft mouthfeel but maybe a bit to thin. Some figs. Fudge like tones in the aftertaste. Light to medium body.
