3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. Pours out in a slightly hazy reddish brown colour with a low tan-coloured head. Sweet malty and spicy aroma of dates, figs, caramel, brown sugar and alcohol. Full-bodied with sweet notes of dark fruit, licorice, burnt sugar and nuts. Warming full mouth-feel. Long warming, bordering to alcoholic finish of pepper, muscovado sugar, rubber and caramel. Another solid offering from Raasted but the sweetness felt a bit overdone

A little disappointing - other beers in this brewer’s stable were generally good. Trying too hard to match the strength with fancy flavours - ends with an underlying cabbage rottenness.

Tasted 2007-11-16. This is an odd christmas beer. I agree with those who write, that it resembles a porter. A mild porter though. It’s dark with a smokey taste of chocolate. It’s very tasty, but it doesn’t exactly ring my jingle bells. It rings a lot else though, so I’ll be generous with the grade!

UPDATED: FEB 1, 2008 Fad. Overraskende øl, der ligner en belgier, men i langt højere grad har smag tilfælles med en porter. God frugtig smag med en smule brændthed. Virkelig udmærket.

Fynske Øldage 2005, Odense. Dark brown with a red hue. The mouthfeel is oily and nice and the aroma is sweet and spicy. The flavour is sweetish, spicy with notes of roasted malt, nuts, weak hints of licorice and a very light bitterness in the finish. It has a nice full body, and I do not feel the alcohol in the flavour.
