4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20 pdx77 (329) - Oregon, USA - MAR 3, 2013From bottle during Oscars. Poured super-fizzy. Looks like liquid molasses. Great quad taste and definite boozy warming. Banana, pitted fruit, molasses, and caramel notes.
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 ansalon (195) - SWEDEN - MAY 18, 2013
A lovely reddish brown burgundy color with a compact off-white head. Nose is caramel, raisins, vanilla, cherries, dried fruit. Taste is complex: raisins, dried fruit, dates, figs, caramel, toffee. Lingering notes of caramel with creamy textures coating the mouth. Very very good, but does not quite live up to the hype.

4.1 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 ericdevin (234) - Eugene, Oregon, USA - MAY 18, 2013
Bottle from 16 Tons, Eugene. So, I must preface this review by saying that I’m not very inclined towards abts in general, but I passed a glass of this guy around last night when friends were over. Pretty good, but there are definitely beers in this style that I prefer. Pours a very dark cloudy brown, lots of particulate. Aroma is amazing, sweet, candi sugar, malt, prunes, vanilla, dried fruit, cherries. The body is lively enough, and the finish hits very boozy, with subtle almond notes. A good beer but I wasn’t gobsmacked.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20 stumpyiliz (134) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - MAY 17, 2013
Not all that its hyped up to be. Lots of spicy floral flavor. Alcohol very present throughout the serving. Good body but the depth meat and character are no where on par with the number one beer in the world. Prefer rocherfort 10 or the malheur 12 better.

The best beer I ever tried.. Full of flavour, has a roasty floral aftertaste... It feels full in mouth and has some caramel flavours in the palate.. If this can help the ones who would like to try the beer, have a look on :
westvleterenshop.com ..
I had a great experience there, and found out the best prices.. Good luck

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 (1071) - 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 (1196) - 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 (263) - 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.
