Jul 12, 2004 Lacing, white head, amber color. Has a toasty caramel undertone to it with light hops on top. Goes down easy.

Jul 10, 2004 Amber with steady bubbling producing a lasting compact tan head. Toasted almond like aroma, with a very earthy, restrained spice to the flavor. Matched very well with the garlic pesto chicken and cheese ravioli dish.

Jun 27, 2004 Amber in color with a small dissapating head. Nice aroma of sweet malts. Flavor mostly fruity with little hop character, finishing overly sweet. Nice beer but nothing special.

Jun 21, 2004 bottled at brewtopia - a pretty standard biere de garde - some caramel going on, but mostly grassy and grainy - nothing stand-out, glad I had it at a fest instead of dishing the money out for a whole bottle on my own.

Jun 18, 2004 Pours almost copper with a small tanned head. Aroma is sweet with some hints of caramel, light spice, and malt. Bit of roastiness as well. Taste is nicely hopped with more of the malt coming through. There’s a hint of cocoa on the tongue but also an odd cardboard or paper-like taste towards the finish. Not bad though, mind you. A bit effervescent on the palate and the finish is bittersweet. Good beer.

Nice dark amber with steady tanned head. Sweet dunkel-like aroma, some toffee notes. Medium-bodied, bittersweet with hops and caramel flavors. Warming.
Suprisingly this remains me about "Porin Juhlaolut" by Sinebrychoff. (5/4/6/3/13 3.1)

Clear amber color with good brownish head. Toffee and slight cognac nose. Burned sugar, toffee and malty-backbone in the flavor. Gives slightly harsh, alcoholic aftertaste. (5/4/6/3/13 3.2)

Jun 12, 2004 Very nice, clear and dark amber color with medium head. Sweetish, slightly alcoholic aroma with almonds. Quite malty, sweetish, earthy and woody, slightly acidic flavor with a long, bitter and sticky finish. Medium-bodied, very smoothly carbonated and creamy palate. A very pleasant, reasonably complex and easily drinkable brew. Enjoy it on a rainy day with good company :)
