3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(bottle, with thanks to Hildigöltur & Dixen) Pitch black colour with a beige, medium-sized foamy head. Slightly dusty, sweet and strong malty, roasty and quite complex aroma with caramel, liquorice and mocha. Bitter flavour with a light but balancing sweetness, medium body, smooth mouthfeel. Roast-malty taste with aromatic notes of caramel, chocolate and a touch of coffee; long-lasting bitter-sweet finish with burnt malty notes and a dry hops character. Good one which seems to mature very well.

3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Fynske Øldage 2005, Odense. This oatmeal stout has a black/brown color and a big-bubbly head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt and light sweetness. In the flavour the sweetness and malt are initially quite alone, but then the notes of licorice and chocolate comes along in a mild, but still very clear way. The mouthfeel is somewhat thin, and IMO the sweetness is a bit too much in the long run.

Bottle. Creamy lightbrown good mostly lasting head. Black colour. Moderate malty and light hoppy aroma. Nice chocale-flavor. Average finish. Creamy palate.

2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
JSquire, Hotstuff and I had this at a tasting party at his house last night. We had a blind 5 stout tasting and this was #4. This bottled brew from a rating party poured a small sized head of frothy large sized light brown colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a semi-opaque no visible carbonation dark brown colored body. The aroma was malty sweet and mild chocolate. The thin mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish. The flavor contained notes of malt roasted malt and sweet. A decent one but not one that I would consider drinking again.
