Rastacouere (5409), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Jun 3, 2007 Bottle at Oliver Twist little improvised festival for the Denmark-Sweden Football matchup of June 2nd. Lightly hazy deep orange hue. The off-white cover lasts atop it. A fruity one, very apricot-like, dried fruits without all the sweetness. Too tight malted to be juicy. Intense for an unbelievable 4.4% and full bodied with cleansing, smooth carbonation that develops more as it warms. Less smokey than the Bästa, but possibly more complex and more fun to drink in the long run. Fair ham notes and cookie toastiness are also part of the deal. oh6gdx (6339), Vaasa, Finland Apr 18, 2007 Draught. Copper colour, small beigeish head. Aroma is smoked, leathery and malty. Flavour has some smoke, tar, leather, caramel malts as well as some fruity bittery notes in background.

Medium smoky flavour with some hops also present. Round mouthfeel with some tiny hints of chocolate like smoothness. Lingering, ashy smokiness and late, light bitterness.
