Hazy copper color. Strange aroma, fruits, band-aid, alcohol. Medium body strength, the mouthfeel is a bit oily, there is a sweetish and reasonable malt flavor, all spoiled by a too high alcohol and band-aid feeling. Undrinkable.

Bottle. Golden with a small white head. Aromas are sweet caramel malts with peppery and herbal notes. Some metal and evident alcohol. Flavours are sweet ripe pear with brown sugar and tea. Spicy and with alcohol on the finish. Not bad.

Aroma of very strong and spicy German hops melded with some spicy melanoidins. Brownish dark gold and clear with a slowly dwindling head of large white bubbles under a fine foam. Bocky, strong lager with tons of ethanol flavour throughout and a brown sugary taste. The bitterness comes in at the end together with some bitter walnut. The alcohols don’t end at ethanol, but sort of seems a bit like ispropanol with the bitterness. Yuck. Very warming, light to medium body, medium carbonation, slightly bitter finish.

Dark Amber-coloured beer with a nice head. very strong lager, tastes like alcohol, some fruits and a bit sweetened, quite bitter beer.

Dark golden/amber coloured beer. Aroma of alcohol, fruits. Taste is alcohol, sweetness, malts, some fruits. Not my style.

Clear amber coloured beer with small white head. Nice carbonation. Sweet herby aroma (reminding me of candy). Fresh little bitter palate. Sweet bitter and herby ending. You’ld not tell it’s 10%.
