A hazy dark amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of fruit and caramel. The flavor is also sweet malty and with notes of caramel as the main things I pick up. The mouthfeel is very smooth, and it has a nice powerful body.

(Bottle 33 cl) A hazy, brownish beer with an off-white head. A very fruity and somewhat sweetish nose. A bit heavy on the CO2. Medium body, some roasted malt, almost vinous with spicy accents. Subdued bitterness. Quite a refined brew. 200506

Bottled. Dark mahogany colour, rich beige creamy head. Tart and vinous, lightly herbal. Medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel. Sweet and sout with syrup dries out by woody vinuos notes and dust.

33 cL bottle. Pours unfiltered brown with a semi crisp and creamy head, quickly disappearing leaving a fatty lacing. Aroma is spicy and whiskey like alcoholic with good portion of malt. Flavour is a harsh blend between cane sugar and malt in a very dark mix. Very dry and bitter finis with distinct spicy notes. Very strong in all its elements and rather unbalanced.

Bottled. Dark amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is spicy, malty and a bit earthy. Flavour is quite the same, but even more spicy. Too spiced for my taste, and in my opinion quite a bore.
