FrostBlast (2), Quebec, Canada does not count | 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Jan 16, 2008 2006 Vintage. Very appealing copper body. Small white head. Aroma has some barley and honey and a fair bit of alcohol, but also a little something that can put you off, which is why I didn’t rate it higher. Palate is very soft, velvelty, flows nicely and feels very full. Flavour would be comparable to a beer version of mead (honey wine), very sweet but still very enjoyable.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 13, 2008 The bottle looks really good. Dark color, nearly copper-like. Very alcoholic aroma. Flavor very strong and prickly. A very good beer, but not a beer for every day! Nephilium (547), Ohio, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jan 12, 2008 (2006 Vintage) Slightly sweet aroma, with a touch of dark fruits, and noticeable alcohol. Pours a clear reddish-amber, with no head, and no visible carbonation. Very sweet aroma, hints of apple and peach. Bit of alcohol warming in the back. Slick mouthfeel. Not a bad beer, but wouldn’t be the first I’d go with. ajm (917), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 12, 2008 It’s not the world’s strongest, it’s not real inventive, but it’s really good. Sweet, like brown apples or overripe bananas, a touch of honey. The sweetness is well-balanced with malt (this being a malt liquor) but overall enjoyable. stefanje (938), (Santee) San Diego, California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jan 11, 2008 Updated: Jan 15, 200911 oz 2006 bottle from Bevmo. Pours a translucent coper color with no head. The aroma is strong with alcohol, dates, figs, and sweet malts. The flavor is similar to the aroma. The mouthfeel is full, smooth and satisfying. The finish is long and caramel malt sweet. Overall: this should age well. Recommended . AllAboutStout (605), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 10, 2008 Pours a light reddish brown in color. No head at all. Smell is all alcoholic malt bomb! Taste is phenolic alchohol with again lots of malt to help support it along the journey. I can already tell this is made for aging. A little burn in the throat and nasal passage on the after sip. This beer was made for cellaring! Veer (355), Landskrona, Sweden
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jan 9, 2008 Aroma: interesting, yeasty. Dried fruit - figs, raisins. Dough...sweet malt. Dried fruit & red wine.
Flavour: sweet, tuna, malty, biscuity... not that good. I blame the fish flavour.
Appearance: obscene, orange brown, sugary, clear. Some thin yellowish, quickly diminishing foam.
Palate: sticky, thick; sharp bubbles; however not too carbonated.
