Bottle, i must have got the most infected bottle of all time. This ruby brown bottle was gushing when opened by the bartender at eulogy. Aroma is salt, oxidization, wet paper, and funk. Flavor, i cant even tell you 2 sips before i had to drain pour dam i was excited about this one too, anyone got a good bottle to share? seriously had consistency of almost ready jello.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 JMFG (1585) - Florida, USA - SEP 27, 2008
Courtesy SoLan. Caramel color with a thin, sparse off-white head. Mild sweet dark fruit on the aroma, some grain. General sweetness on the taste, dark fruits again, but not much of a Belgian character to it really. Pretty basic.

3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 yngwie (10798) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - SEP 5, 2008
Bottle, shared by papsoe. It pours a hazy brown body under a quite small beige head. The beer is probably past it’s prime, but still in good condition, even though there’s evident oxidation in both aroma and flavor. It has a malty, roasted aroma and flavor with dried fruits and caramel. A little sourish touch towards the finish, which is malty and caramel tasting. Full to medium body and pleasant level of carbonation. A nice beer that is hard to categorize. (080822)

Fruity and dense caramel malty flavour with a lingering malty profile and a dense fruity base. Solid sweet and mild oxidised. Nice caramel and chocolate malty finish. Smooth and pleasant.

Bottle at Eulogy: Poured a dark amber color with a nice sized head. The aroma was strong malts and yeast. The flavor was sweet and slightly sour. Overall, for a beer that is probably going on two years old, it is still holding its flavor and is enjoyable to drink. Glad I got to try this.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 GG (1980) - NorCal, California, USA - MAY 2, 2008
Pretty forgetful. This is my 2nd or 3rd time with Heavyweight and they just haven’t done much for me. I know they’re out of business for the most part. Wasn’t sure what to make out of this beer. A Belgian Strong? The beer poured out an amberish-red color with a medium sized head. First whiffs and all I got was malt, sour malt in fact. Yeast also shows up with a bit of tobacco notes. Flavors was like a plum extract or rotted plums..I don’t know which. Alcohol and spices are also very prominent. Seemed like a dubbel somehow. A bad dubbel. Anyways, not tasty at all.
