750ml Bottle (Olutkellari, Helsinki) - Very hazy amber. Slightly sweet and malty aroma with hints of peach. Malty, fruity and hoppy taste with tangy fruit, spicy malt and a noticeable sweetness.

Bottled. A hazy deep red beer with an orangey head. The aroma has strong notes of sweet malt and fruit as well as a light acidic and brett’y edge. The flavor is very sweet and very malty with quite a lot of fruit and some bread. The alcohol burns lightly in the cheeks. Thanks fonefan for sharing.

Bottle. High creamy and long lasting, good looking off-white head, leaving nice lacings. Thickly looking hazy milky orange body. Lovely barley malt aroma with nutty and earthy notes. Dusty oranges lemon caramel flavors as well as a bit of ginger. Low carbonation, fair amount of hops bitterness, and a long aftertaste. Very well balanced and alcohol nicely hidden by all the flavors.

Faint bubbles, imitating B.C."H." with very good resemblance; hazed red-amber beer. Sharpish sourish nose, and aromas as from ginger, lavender, pine and cookies. Very imposing spicy flavours - it’s nearly unbelievable this beer isn’t spiced. Woody character, biscuit and faraway restsweetness, warming up becoming more chocolatey. No carbonation - second time. Rather well-bodied, obvious alcoholburn. Again one that seems a bit off. As the beer presented at pre-ZBF had none of this lack, I’m starting to wonder about the condition of the bottles for sale.

Bottle in a train in Belgium. Hazy orange red coloured with a small off white head. Fruity aroma of caramel and dried fruits. Fruity flavour of caramel and dried fruits with notes of yeast and hops. Hoppy finish.
