A hazy amber beer with no head. The aroma is of alcohol and honey, like a mead, with hints of roasted malt. The flavor is also dominated by alcohol and with notes of prunes, leading to a dry finish. The alcohol warms Your body, but burns Your throat on the way.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of acertain. Slightly hazy amber golden with a small, off-white head. Fat aroma of caramel, overripe fruit and alcohol. A bit low in carbonation. Very full-bodied, extremely sweet caramel and flavours of overripe fruit. Pretty much no bitterness. Not bad as such but simply way too much and almost cloyingly sweet. This could pass for a desert wine. 191206

Bottled.Thick copper red appearance. Raisiny port aroma. Extrenely sweet and malty with concentrated and complex flavours such as orange, muscat and liqueur. Somewhat sticky finish. Despite it’s sweetness I very much enjoy it, thanks to the sheer amount of flavours it contains.
