Egon (309), Gothenburg, Sweden Apr 17, 2006 Pours a black beer with a nice white foam. A complex, medium bitter flavour and a long dry finish. Hard to find anything special taste, it simply tastes good. I really liked this beer!
Slipstream (389), USA Oct 6, 2008 Supposedly brewed in the oldest house in Scotland. This has a vinous, almost vinegary aroma with hints of flowers. Nice label. Dark brown pour. The taste is malty sweet with esters and a touch of heather or herbs. An interesting, unique flavor and a nice brew overall. Archibaldo de la Cruz (135), Finland Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown colour with a small quickly disappearing tan head. Sweet malty flavour with hints of fruits. The flavour is very malty, fruity and a bit sweet. Bitter aftertaste, medium to full-bodied and quite smooth mouthfeel. Very good beer. puzzl (1812), New York, New York, USA Oct 5, 2008 Bottled. Greasy brown pour without much head, mostly clear. Flavor is a burly, spruce-y gum, root beer like in body and flavor, some sap and band-aid. Mellow, very woody aroma, some licorice and tar. Nicely complex in both aroma and flavor. Not one to be drank too cold. A solid effort. blutt59 (776), Dallas, Texas, USA Sep 28, 2008 bottle, deep brown pour, head is small soap, aroma of dried dark fruits, flavors of same dark fruits and some oaky whiskey notes, finish falls off quickly jhagmar (72), Gothenburg, Sweden Sep 28, 2008 33 cl bottle. Reddish brown with a small, tan head that quickly vanishes. Moderate to heavy malty notes - bread, burnt caramel and chocolate. Very fruity with aroma of raisins, plum, cherry and cassis, much like a port. Taste is initially sweet and acidic, and finishes off surprisingly quickly on the sour note with the slightest hint of bitterness. LIght-bodied with a soft and very plain mouthfeel.
