Gold-amber color with light beige head. Taste of malts and caramel malts. This beer has a medium body with hints of malts, and has a bitterness in the end . Very nice.

0.33l bottle at home. Light hazy golden color. Lachesis and Jerre described in lot of details aroma and taste so I will not waste your time on that. What I noticed is that at the end taste was more spicy than bitter, probably bit of coriander in brewing process. Very nice beer, lot of character.

Bottled. Amber colour with mediumsized creamy white head. Some lace. Aroma is caramel malts, some fruity and flowery hopping as well as mild spices and yeast. Flavour is fruits, some berries, spices and some toffeeish notes. Aftertaste turns into quite much grass and palate goes dry.

(Thanks to Papsoe) 33 cl bottle. Amber colour with a nice white head. Aroma of spice, malt and caramel. Great sweet flavour of caramel and spice. Ends up light and tasty, very nice.

Bottled, from Oasi Della Birra, Roma, Italy.
Orange, ginger body, hazy but no obvious sediment. Full, dull white head, serviced by fine bubbles, leaving a static head. Citrus orange aroma, with a sharp citric bitterness. Moderate to long length on the palate with a background of maltiness

From the Kulminator. Nice abbey with good spices. Ale/amber color. Of course, my memory is more of the Kulminator than anything else....

The beer after its excavation from the 330ml brown bottle sets in my glass luminous gold color with a portly bright white head that is creamy in texture and after its demise the lace forms a thin sheet upon the glass. Nose is sweet malt, citrus like in its crispness also a hint of yeast; start is sweet with a nice malt presence, the top light. Finish has a light to moderate acidity and the hops sparing in their spiciness, very dry aftertaste that lingers on, a drinkable beer.

Bottled. Aroma of orange, caramel, grapefruit and light herbs. Amber color, beige head, good lace. Light sweet, citric sour, herbal, bitter, orange/grapefruit, iron, bit thin.

Bottle: Poures a a rusty brown with a huge creamy off white head. Aroma is sweet caramel and sugary malts. Taste is a sweet caramel malt with very sugary and metallic finish.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy orange with a slowly collapsing white head. Light citrus fruity and mild spiced aroma. Flavour is mellow yeasty. Light malt base, medium dry. Ends with a light yeasty flavour and mildly spiced. Reappearing light orange fruity note in the far finish.
