The Côte d'Or appelation includes both Beaune and Nuits. But this mostly remind me of Nuits with dark berry fruit and dark color. Young but quite drinkable with the right (light) food pairing. Quite a lot of fun compared to the usual Bourgogne selection here in Sweden. — 5 years ago
Omnipollo Aon Pecan Mud Cake Imperial Stout.
Holy smokes! This was insane. Pours out thick and velvety. Like an elixir of concentrated chocolate and nuts. The name definitely hits the mark... That smell... That taste... Instantly reminds me of caramelised pecan... Chocolate brownies... Oozey... Fresh out of the oven... Pecan mud cake for sure... Ahhhh!!! And I haven't even swallowed... But when you do... Man, it's delicious. It's like having brownies with fresh cream and toasted marshmallows on the side... It's really that interplay of bittersweet that gets me. This is really good stout. I'm a fan.
NB: Funnily enough, I've developed a liking for rather rich beers despite my intolerance for the wine equivalent 🤔🤔🤔 — 5 years ago

Kanonvin från Götelaborg! Påminner om de första naturvinerna man köpte från köpenhamn. Saftigt pris men väl värt det. Systemet i östra gbg. — 6 years ago

This apple cider I found in Sweden. Its quite sweet and it's made of elder flower. Very refreshing the flower taste is subtle not as strong as the briska brand version of this drink — 8 years ago
Not a beer geek myself, but even I know this was extraordinary. While the nose is quite mild, the flavours hits you like a bus. Heavily hopped with a bittersweet balance, and a round almost-oily mouthfeel (only held back by some carbonation). Orange rind, lychee, grass, malt, and caramel comes to mind. Lingers with a little warmth, which gives it a great sense of robustness. Delicious, but perhaps a little too intense for me.
NB: Intensity seems to be a common theme in these Omnipollo brews. These guys sure take things to the extreme. Big fan, but definitely not for the faint-hearted. — 5 years ago
A Chicago original. Very bitter and herbal. Reminds me of some of the more bitter and intense aquavit you can find in Sweden only. Quite a bracing shot. Though frankly, nice and cold on the rocks it can make a change if you can handle it. Like others have said it’s not easy to rate as it’s not easy to like as such. But it’s a thing. — 5 years ago
Beer battered, breadcrumbed, roasted chestnuts in an adumbrated rhubarb grotto swollen with overripe tart fruit. Scents can be deceptive, however, as the palate is round, but the tartness well-integrated into the prettiest pin cushion of citrus flower; Orange, limes and pomelo, stuffed with infinite strands of Brett-specifics of ginger, nutmeg and tea leaves dusted with nano-funk. Such a sensational marriage of unexpected harmonies. I suspect the raspberries sew it all together seamlessly. — 6 years ago

A very nice Ripasso. For it has a lot of sweet raisin on the nose but not sweet in the mouth, a hint of spice and pepper. Quite long after taste. Less then $15 in Sweden. — 8 years ago
