SaintMatty (306), Tallinn, Estonia Jan 19, 2008 33cl Bottle- Dark brown with red tinges and a small, light tan head. Slightly fruity aroma with raisins and dates. Fruity and tangy taste, again with raiains and a hint of sweetness and spice. Drinkable but does not taste like it is 6.5%. raymondwave (742), Finland Dec 19, 2007 Bottle 0.33 l. Nicely dark amber looks, smallish head. Malts, caramel, some syrup. Alcohol sweetness. Not that different from milder version, except for the alcohol sweetness. Not bad, but quite characterless and thinnish for such high alcohol. Miksu (1154), Jyväskylä, Finland Nov 26, 2007 Draught at Old Brick’s Inn, Jyväskylä. Dark ruby color with thick peige head. The aroma and flavor is strongly malty with lots of toffee and caramel as well as some nutty notes. Low bitterness, some alcohol coming through.
