From a large at Oslo ølfestival. Pours dark amber to mahogany, with a tan head. Malty and fruity aroma with notes Belgian yeast, spices, caramel and hints of dried fruits and roasted malt. Sweet and fruity with a spicy and bitter finish. Surprisingly lightbodied and easy to drink.

Courtesy of kiefdog. Pours deep amber with bubbly tan head. The aroma is a bit mild with apricots, raisins, bright red cherries, a bit of apple and spice. Pretty nice. The taste begins with a pulse of raisins and prunes and then moves toward mild even spices and some sugar candi sweetness. The flavors seem a bit on the bright side at this time.

Bottle: Poured a dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is sweet with fruit, malt, and honey. Taste is sweet fruit and malt, yet has a honey and spice hint in the finish that keeps it from being a sugary mess.

Pours a dark chestnut, almost a cola brown, with a thick and frothy buff head that pillows after a couple minutes. Aroma has roast malt, caramel, woody, and subtle honey tones. Flavor starts with toasty malt and then cues caramel, nutty, earthy, and shy honey notes to add to the sonata. Firm texture is smooth, yet fairly tingly, so it goes down well, leaving a caramel and earthy finish. Support your local!

Corked and caged 750ML bottle. Dark pour, nearly brown, under a creamy brown head. Aroma was honey, yeast, and malt. Enjoyable flavour of cloves, yeast, malt, and honey. Smooth mouthfeel, and a hint of honey to finish. Nice enough, but not as good as Local 1.

Pours a dark tea brown, tall tight off white head, good lacing. Head is sustained leaving substantial lacing. Aromas of light ripe fruits, some brown sugar and honey, Belgian yeasts, very very slight orange zest, malts. Flavor is slightly sweet from yeasts and honey, nicely lingering, nice ripe fruits, light bananas, yeasts and sweet maltiness. Worthy - will try again.

750 ml "champagne"-corked bottle, shared at local tasting, thanks to Sigrid S. ABV is 9%. Brown colour, large off-white head. Sweetish aroma, some stale notes, not impressive. Medium sweet flavour, fruity, some stale notes again, a bit disappointing.

So much foam it wont stop bubbling. Brown body, tall faomy fluffy cap. Not much aroma, faint hints of yeast, sourness, I smell banana but i might be making that up. Taste is fuller, sweet, caramel, yeast, wheat, nice light spice. The body is a little thin and has a weird but workable vanilla flavour. Nuts show up in finish, weird lingering bitter. good brew I enjoy it but nothing overly special.

Figs, as in the fresh ones, definately the front runner in this beer. Listening to Burial - "Fostercare", bit of a soapy head but fairly small bubbles with incredible retention and some lacing. Next dominent flavour/aroma, malt, carmel and alot of it, nothing really sweet about it all, just malt, maybe some munich... but mostly great dark malts. Something I cant really place............JESUS! its the honey! definately! a dry dark, smelly honey, really thick, really resinous, birch bark type of honey, wow now that i have a word for it its all over the place! some floral, some different tree barks, some orange, some watermelon seeds (the best part about that reference is that it is more imaginary than snooszberry). Yum.
