Commercial Description:
In 1994, the 33 Plato gave it the world's highest gravity. Though the beer can no longer make this claim, it is still one of the world's most reknowned strong lagers.

A deep red beer with a small orange head. The aroma is extremely sweet with notes of caramel and alcohol. The flavor is like thick sugar water with notes of alcohol and caramel. Nice one. Thanks to sk8viking’s wife for bringing this gem to Denmark.

Bottled at RBESG. Dark brown, no head. Loads of toffee paired with syrup. Soft and very malty with sticky mouthfeel and salty finish. Potent and complex, but the excessive sweetness reduces the enjoyment and makes it more of a novelty.

(Bottle 100 cl) Dark brown with a warm, orange glow, very small head. Sweetish scent of dates and overripe plums. And you find the exact same impressions in the flavours. Fruity all the way through - like sweet, tasty desert wine. Josh is right, this is a malt lovers paradise. Extremely delicate. 120805

Dark brown; no head; heavy nose - molasses, good tamari soy sauce; slightly salty; sweet, oily body; touch of marzipan, soy, demerara, hint of mandarin orange (again with the Japanese theme). Sweet and thick without being cloying or syrupy. A good meal.

From tap at plan b. Pours dark brown/amber with no lasting head. Thick sweet brewmash and berry aroma, very very sweet. Flavour is by far the sweetest thing I’ve tasted. Heavy berry note and cornish flavour too. Slight burned/roasted note. Burned finish. Alcohol does give a warming feel but does not really burn. This is perhaps the only really sweet beer I’ve enjoyed.
