    • Date: May 22, 2008 (#7044)
      Package: bottled
      Place: Plan B, København K
      Score: 15½ points
      Appearance (2½)
      Bright golden. Chunky. Thick head.
      Aroma (3)
      Sweet malt. Very earthy. Mildly spicy.
      Mouthfeel (8)
      Big body, moderate carbonation. Fiercely malty all the way through. Some diacetyl. A bit warming, but nowhere near what I expected.
      Overall Impression (2)
      Real good strong beer, except for the butter. On the other hand, maybe the "butter" is actually the pumpkin and pumpkin seeds that were used as ingredients in this beer.
