Brown-amber coloured beer with a small head. Yeasty and woody aroma. The taste is a bit odd, I do not know exactly what it is. The finish is light bitter.

[ZBF 2004] A clear brown beer with a fine but disappearing head. The aroma is sweet caramel with notes of wood and plums. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and roasted bread. It ends on a bitter hop note. A very nice beer.

(Sample 1.5 yr. old) Colour: dark brown with yellow-golden shine, which appears in the thick, irregular head. Roasted malts, mocca and some madeira or port in the nose. taste gives roasted grains or coffee, something smokey. Also some malty, full sweetness. Mouthfeel is surprisingly full for only 5.5 % ABV. Tends towards a lot of unfermented(able) sugars. Nor new aftertaste. Pretty decent beer, really. Deserves slightly more body and alcohol.
