POLK (1628) - Hørning, DENMARK - JAN 8, 2012
Sweet aroma of malt and yeast. tastes spicy and slightly sweet as Belgian ale. there is very little carbonic acid and yeast residues that disrupt taste the experience.

GSAP (87) - NETHERLANDS - DEC 18, 2011
Licht zoet aroma van rood fruit. Smaak is ook rood fruit met een lik koffie, met een in balans bittere afdronk. Niet bijster interessant, helaas, ondanks de gewonnen zilveren medaille. Bier te koud (koelkast temperatuur) geschonken, wat een matte kraag en als eerste slokken heel weinig smaak inhield.

Nice balance, hoppy, not too sweet. Fine caramel flavour balances bitterness throughout.

Dark brown colour. Flavour has lots of complex malt character. There’s bitter, roasted malts, some smokiness and some coffee. The rye rounds the beer well and adds a different dimension to the bitterness.

Bottle @ home. Aroma is light roasty, quite some caramel, touch of spice, faint metal. Flavour is dry with a reasonable bitterness, foloowed by some sweet fruit and caramel. Decent bok.
