POLK (1628) - Hørning, DENMARK - DEC 24, 2011
Tart flavor. boring foam and too expensive (60kr for 0.5 L). Powered by brewing syrup according to the brewer who would never make such a beer again, because of the large amount of work

MesandSim (7109) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - NOV 5, 2009
A Mes rate. Bottle at the Kulminator.
Black with a tan head. Lots of chocolate powder, black malt and raw oak. A little one dimensional if you ask me. The oak is not particularly integrated and seems like a late addition. Oak and chocolate but not in balance. Still a good beer, just feels like it had a bit more to give.
