armando629 (434), Budapest, Hungary Oct 1, 2008 Dark copper beer with a nice lacing beige head. Sweet caramel, toffee and coffee nose. Sweet candy sugar taste with a roasted flavor, cinnamon and some spices, oily palate, moderated aftertaste of roasted grains. Nice beer, i liked it:) sayravai (3183), Helsinki, Finland Sep 25, 2008 (Draught@Arendsnest) Hazy dark reddish brown with a huge, firm and everlasting head. Aroma of caramely, slightly roasty malt, and dried fruit. Roasted-grainy-malty, sourish flavor with the vegetably De Prael "house flavor", and some ashy bitterness that stays for long in the aftertaste. Almost medium body, slightly sticky palate with smooth carbonation. A slightly vegetably bock, but at least the sweetness is not too much. HenrikSoegaard (3171), Randers, Denmark Feb 6, 2008 Bottle. Creamy lightbrown excellent mostly lasting head. Red-amber colour. Heavy malty light hoppy aroma, very spicey with cinnamon and coriander notes. Moderate bitter flavor, Long ok finish. Oily palate and a little too fizzy. ante (2525), Stockholm, Sweden Dec 29, 2007 Cloudy brown with red hints. Small creamy white foam. Aroma of raw yeast, white bread, blue plums, figs and cocoa.
