Woh - bread pudding! Big sweet malts and raisins. Slightly gravy-like taste, but apart from that, it’s very sweet and hugely full bodied. Rich toffeeness in the mouth, and the burnt corners of bread pudding.

0,5L bottle. Dark red color, malty aroma. Fruity flavor, some malty, but alcohol taste is strong - too strong for good impressions.

UPDATED: JUL 24, 2009 500ml Bottle - Brown/red in colour. Fruity and malty aroma with hints of raisin and grain. Rich and fruity taste with raisins and some spicy malt. Not too bad at all.

Sadly, I had a bottle of this one day after it’s best before date. It has not travelled or aged well, the high alcohol being its saving grace, keeping this beer drinkable. Lovely colour and appearance. Served in 1/2 pint dimple glass. Aroma was harsh esters and some caramel underneath hot alcohol. Flavour reminded me of an over-aged home brewed doppelbock. I can imagine what this beer would have tasted like fresh. Shame that it had to cross the equator and so long ago. Hope to find one closer to its home and try again.

Good head on a red/brown beer carbonation mild,caramel malt aroma.Flavour strange at first,caramel,malt,then hoppy,butter malty,nut tasty.Finish malt/hop sweet caramel citrus very even taste.

Clear reddy amber body with a minimal lasting head. Malty toffee aroma without much difference in the taste . Alcohol is present but not too much to the front, body is ok and gets easier to drink towards the end of the stubby though one was enough.

Nice brown colour with nice brownish dissapearing head. Aroma is very sweet malty with syrup, strawberries. Flavor is sweet malty with mushrooms and strawberries. Finnish is bitter sweet. Kunigaiksciu means Dukes’s

Bottle. Hazy amber coloured with almost no head. Sweet and malty with notes caramel, fruits, metal and hops.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with no head. The aroma is sweet and dominated by malt, while the flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel. And it has a good body.
