Appearance - Rusty brown, sudsy lacing
Aroma - Croutons, dirt and cocoa
Taste - Bread, buttery, spicy, peppercorn

Peppercorn was the obvious flavor here, but with a rye combo it certainly was interesting. The body had a pleasant, light crouton flavored body with a nice and spicy peppercorn finish. It may be drinkable, but a beer of this flavor may not be for some...

Bottle poured a dark reddish brown and large khaki head into a tulip glass with attractive carbonation and slight lacing. Aroma is mainly malt with hints of pepper. Initial flavor is caramel malts and rye bread followed by slight fruit bitterness ending with peppery spice. Peppercorn spice lingers in the mouth and throat. Nice effort, but expected more from aroma.

Murky dark brown pour with very little head. Aromas of caramel malt, rye malt, and fruit. Taste is slightly sweet malt up front, somewhat fruit and spicy in the middle and the finish is smooth leaving a tingling peppery taste on the tongue. Interesting beer. Worth trying, especially if you like pepper.

There she stood, in the mist. Shrouded in mystery. I was unaware of the task she had been appointed. No matter. The wind gave insight to her peppery demeanor. I was a fool to have trusted her, but onward I pushed. Her lips were subtle and lingered a sweetness of caramel and chocolate. What is this trickery? Desperately I yearned for more but I was mocked by her simplicity - a jest. Led astray into a utopian dream, kissed by the adder. For what? I know not. The trees wept at my delight, for they knew the truth behind the trickery. The wind laughed at me. The sun died - but I lived. The apostle in triumph gave rejoice to the resolve of her devilish ways. Into oblivion she disappeared. A good beer.

Deep red/brown pour with a thin white head. Aroma is malt and some caramel mostly. Flavor is good. Malty, slightly sweet. Nice lingering heat at the back end. Good beer.

Extremt kryddig, mycket peppar, het som tusan vilket gör den en aning obalanserad.

Bottle at Far i Hatten, Malmö, April 2012. Dark amber with a small head. A lot of black pepper both in the aroma and taste. Also malt and caramel. Dry with a lot of pepper in the finish. An interesting beer that became tastier after a while.

12oz bottle. Pours a burnt sienna color with minimal head. The aroma is rich in rye and pumpernickel and sweet fresh malt. The flavor is round nutty with a very pronounced rye bready flavor.... definitely alot of pepper i the finish ! Keeps coming with fresh ground pepper flavors, goes great with chacuterie.
