Bottle from Kihoskh, february 16th 2013. Dark brown body, red tint, big foamy brown head. Aroma of licorice, roasted malt, citrus fruits. Taste is roasty with licorice and a light chili presence, which as usual grows down the glass. Being a sucker for chili in beers I like the way it’s presented here. Lifting the bitterness is a light apricot taste, which also helps balance the spiciness. Aftertaste is licorice and roast, leaving a mild hot chili taste. Good stuff!

330ml bottle. Pours a deep amber, with a brown head. Spicy aroma, caramel, licorice root, hints of peppers, apricot, hops. Off-dry, medium body and bitterness, balanced CO2. Quite spicy and fruity taste, licorice, chili, apricot, hops, yeast. Flavour-wise, this beer is the stage for a three-front war. Licorice, chili and hops – nah… (2012-08-24)

DØE festival, DK. Tap, 120512. Brown with beige head. Aroma of spices and malt. Flavour with roast, cilli and liqourice.

Bottle, bought @ BarleyWine, Cph.
Pours deep red to dark brown with a small, frothy and light fizzy beige head. Aroma has clear liqourice, mild roasted malts, a touch of biting chili. A mild buttery note. Highish carbonation, fine dryish and fat mouthfeel. Flavour has lots of liqourice (really a lot!), chili is mild and more herbal than biting. Mildly roasted, but this is really about the liqourice.

Bottle from Barley Wine. Pours clouded brown/red with almost no head. Malty and sweet aroma. Taste has a lot of smooth liquorice, malts and some chili. Was expecting more chilli. Very sweet and quite flat After 3-4 sips, this one feels finished.

Bottle from Vinmonopolet, Vika. Pours slightly hazy dark brown with a reddish hue and a light brown head. Aroma of licorice, malt, caramel and fruits. Sweet and malty with a solid licorice flavor and a nice, mild chili bite. Some roasty notes. Just a little bit too sweet for me, but the chili bite is very nice. Some bitterness in the finish and a nice mild chili afterburn...

0.33 L bottle, picked up @Vinmonopolet, Vika, Oslo. A finger of dense and creamy lightly tanned head, covering a translucent red-shaded brown colored body. Clean sweet-scented malt aroma featuring mild peppers, toasted malts, some fine fruit tones, and a faint licorice root. Well-bodied and smooth in the mouth. The chili added is just about the right amount, and actually tasteable. Not only a burning sensation, like most of the chili beers I’ve had. The chili blends well in with a soft and clean, light caramelly malt body. Faint licorice, hint of ash. Nice lingering chili warmth in the ending. A rock solid and well balanced spiced beer.
