Jan 21, 2008 Pours a clear pale yellow body with a skimpy white head that quickly falls to a film. Aroma is bready and malty, with faint florals and some phenolics. Medium body, somewhat syrupy, with low carbonation. Taste is malty and earthy with a hint of floral hops. Whiskey like warming alcohol. A good winter sipper but this one could use some age.

Jan 17, 2008 12 oz bottle purchased at Oak Tree. Pours a clear bubbly orange with a small totally diminshing white head. Boozy aroma with notes of bready malts, green apples and honey sweetness. Medium chewy body with a very dry finish and slight alcohol warming. Dry flavor of booze, bread and slightly fruity. Not bad but some time might allow this beer to really show some more potential.

Jan 16, 2008 2007 bottle. Head is initially small, fizzy, off-white, fully diminishing. Body is clear dark yellow. Aroma is moderately malty (caramel, bread), with notes of peach, alcohol, candy sugar. Flavor is heavily sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, watery/syrupy texture, lively carbonation, moderately to heavily alcoholic. Not tooooo far removed from the regular Sami, just a bit milder. Enjoyable to a degree but boozy and kinda simple.

Jan 16, 2008 Great extra from SoLan. A blonde dopplebock. Pours very light, frothy tiny head that disappears right away. Overripe fruit (white grape, peach) and strong corn fusels (a bit euro-strong lager-like). Taste is alcohol hot, sweet, some hearty grain and bread. Slick and somewhat thick. Fatiguingly sweet...but still a fascinating drink. Nice in a 140 cl snifter (kind of like those little EKU glasses).

Jan 13, 2008 Yellow with a small white head. Fruity aroma, with plenty of alcohol, giving a sherry-like impression. Very sweet with strong alcohol flavour.

Jan 10, 2008 Updated: Aug 20, 2009Poured a deep orange color with a very thin head that dissolved quickly. The aroma is of sweet malts, caramel, alcohol, and sugar. The flavor is in your face sweet with the caramel malts and syrupy sugar dominating with a hint of fruit in the background. This one was just overpowering from the start with the malts and sweetness and followed it up with some solid heat from the alcohol that is persistent all the way through. Just a big beer all the way, but a liitle too sweet and overbearing for my tastes. Still a solid offering though.

Jan 9, 2008 Pours a clear gold with little white head. Aroma is sweet and fruity with lots of alcohol there. Taste is very sweet with fruit and honey. A very strong alcohol warmth. A very good malty beer, almost like drinking a mead.
