Csak a jó sör, Budapest. Egészen fura lilás sötétbarna színe van, habja pedig szürkés, szivacsos és krémes állagú egyszerre, nem kitartó. Illata áfonyás, aszalt bogyós gyümölcsös, karamellás és parfümös. Íze ehhez hasonló, inkább édes, likőrös (méghozzá eperlikőr), és csak egészen kevés virágos komló érződik. Igen testes, apró kortyokban fogyasztandó, igazi téli sörkülönlegesség.

Une odeur de sucre et d’épice. Un bel équilibre amer/sucré oů le sucre est un peu plus domimant. Elle est assez pétillante et tranchante en bouche, ce que j’aime un peu moins. L’Arričre goűt de miel est plaisant.

Dark fruit taste, a pungent odor and retains the sweetness of the regular honied Barbar. Opaque brown color.

Yves (1553) - Turnhout, BELGIUM - NOV 3, 2011
Dark brown coloured beer with large rocky off-white head and no carbonation visible. Sweet spicy and malty aroma. Full sparkling palate. Finish is malty sweet with some fruity hints ending bitter dry. Nice one!

Very nice Bok beer with most notably it’s taste of honey. Makes this a very enjoyable, sweet and malt bok.

Honey and spices, brings memories of dark woods and snow, fantastic head and a deep deep red color. Make sure you pour this in the appropriate glass with plenty of head room. Complex tastes with honey being dominant carry through, but a bit too high an alcohol content and a slightly disappointing end leave a little (but just a little!) to be desired. This is definitely a "winter warmer" and it WILL keep you warm :)
