Enormt kraftigt brus på denne mørkebrune meget uklare øl, med en del proteinklumper i. Duften er dejlig maltet med en smule krydderi. Smagen er ogå rigtig fin, men der er bare den lille ting med udseendet der trækker en kende ned. tupalev (2611), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

Dark brown, small white head. Caramel aroma, some alcohol, light spices - nice. Good taste - more caramel and malt, alcohol, rather sweet and spicy. Very good yet surprisingly very drinkable as well at this alcohol percentage. garthicus (1274), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

Pours a dark ruby murky colour with a small head and little carbonation.
Very fruity smell, lot’s of sweet fruits there mixed in with some spices and raisins.
Taste is also very sweet and fruity, can taste several fruits such as oranges, apples and vaguely some caramel.
Very well balanced christmas beer with a good nice warmth when going down. wyzzywyz22 (779), Wirral, Merseyside, England
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 27, 2008 Bottle, Barleycorns, Nantwich. Easy there santa...lost a chunk of this all over the work surface as this exploded in to life. Strange looking grey tinged dark cloudy brown colour with a fair amount of sediment floating around. Aroma was spicy with some malt and dark fruit. Similar flavour which was sticky sweet and slightly cloying. Balance not quite there. Thought this would be a lot better; a let down.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 27, 2008 Little hazy brown with a huge yet disappearing beige head. Sweet malty, spices, caramel, yeasty. Same could be said for flavours. I’d expect more. No traces of the crazy complexity of their brune. Fin (3411), Merton, Oxfordshire, England
