3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle at Kolding Ølmesse. Pours a copper-golden body with a nice beige head on top. Dusty, chalky nose with hops and a fruityness. Malty sweetness as well. The flavor isn’t as dusty and chalky as the aroma, and has a more pronounced, yet not pushing spicyness. Full bodied and sweetish, almost sticky. Some bitterness in the finish. Quite nice, but there are quite a few better Christmas beers on the Danish market. (080229)

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle: Hazy, deep amber coloured, stable creamy yellowish head; rich flavour: liquorice, cough syrup and hops (in the background); initially sweet, later drier medical-bitter flavour; lingering ashy bitterness in the aftertaste. A very special brew....
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Red/brown with a huge, creamy head. Both the aroma and the flavour have notes of malt, caramel, yeast, spice, clove, anise and raisin, and the flavour has a light bitterness. In spite of all the notes, it seems like they haven’t been stirred together in the right way, it’s OK, but ordinary... 1772

2.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
The third beer from Papsoe me and ozujsko drank yesterday
Poured a pretty murky orange-brown colour with a small thick creamy beige head that stayed there all the time. Lovely herbal nose, orange candy, some weak roastiness. The taste was a letdown after that. Typical (it would seem) earthy/coffee roastey mixed with peppermint and something else I can’t decypher from my notes. Weak weak smoke that didn’t work all that well for me. Did so well on the appearance and in the nose, but failed in flavor.
