Spectacular, stunning, unique, adjectives fail me for this beer. One of the best beers I’ve tried.

Espetacular. Extremamente Equilibrada. Um aroma que ao abrir a garrafa perfumou o ambiente.
4.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 Holmen1 (1074) - NORWAY - MAY 12, 2013
Flaske delt med importør Ovesen: med stor spenning åpner vi denne for å sjekke om den lever opp til sitt voldsomme rykte. En deilig aroma av røde bær, kandis, alkohol og gjær stiger mot snyteskaftet. Dette lover godt! Brusende skum faller dannet på plass. Smaken er stor og kompleks med mørke bær, sviskeplommer og litt sjokolade som det mest fremtredende. Alkoholen gir den et visst medisinalt preg. Laang ettersmak. en medisin jeg kan ta når som helst, men ikke verdens beste slik mange rb-heads vil ha det til.
4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 BeerBaboon (1197) - FINLAND - MAY 12, 2013
Pours dark brown with beige head. Aroma of dark fruits, raisin, spices and herbs. Flavour is more on the malty than hoppy side. Spices, sweet malt and fruits in the flavour. I bet this gets better with age. Hype made me expect more.
4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 LarsEngen (275) - Sandvika, NORWAY - MAY 10, 2013
33 cl bottle from Etre gourmet. Pours dark red with a medium light beige head. Aroma of portwine, dark fruits and alcohol. Flavor is complex with notes of bread, licorice and alcohol. Very well balanced and easy to drink. Good one but not that great.
4.6 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 snoworsummer (352) - baltimore, Maryland, USA - MAY 9, 2013
From a bottle for a birthday celebration. So good. Starts out with a strong alcohol taste which quickly fades from the mouth and leaves a warm feeling as it travels throughout my body. Light body. Full, delicious aroma. Very complex flavor.
4.7 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 sonnycheeba (1904) - Federal Hill, Baltimore, Maryland, USA - MAY 9, 2013
Bottle as a birthday present from an awesome girl! Pours clear brown with some ruby highlights and average, fizzy beige head; decent retention and spare lacing. Aroma is wonderful with notes of cookie and caramel malts, Belgian yeast, spicy alcohol, plums, figs, and light vanilla. Flavor is sweet, bready malts, dark fruit esters, subtle alcohol, toffee, light tobacco, and faint floral notes; dry finish with a lingering spiciness. Medium/full body and low carbonation. Fantastic beer with great complexity and flavors.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 fletchfighters (817) - AUSTRALIA - MAY 9, 2013
Thanks to Owen and Andrejes for the bottles, Much appreciated
good way to tick 800 I think
Pours a dark ruby brown, good looking color. Two finger head that fades quickly to a thick collar, leaving good spider like lacing. Impressive looking beer.
Grape, bubble gum, stewed plumb,honey, malt, caramel and slight bits of plastic. No notes of the ABV at all.
Grape, raisin, bubble gum, stewed fruits, and honey taste. Slight bits of plastic once again but quite nice.
Medium bodied and a slick. Near perfect carbonation. Well hidden ABV. Impressive.
Basically climbed the mountain now. Really good beer but prefer St. B more as just slightly more complex I think.

330 ml bottle at numerous occasions. Pours deep brown with a small ring of foam (dissipates suickly). Aroma of malt and caramel, some yeast. Medium body with sweet basis, topped with a malty taste and lot of honey notes. Not worth the hype... at all. Yes, I am Belgian.
