Bottled, thanks fonefan! Hazy mahogany colour, small head. Distinct marzipan aroma. Sweet and fruity with above medium body, lots of marzipan, less citrus. Low bitterness. Flavourwise this is closer to a Belgian style ale than an APA - the rhum seems to contribute with a marzipan flavour.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. A clear-looking brown beer topped by a dense, creamy, beige head. The aroma is spiced, with cardamom and some anise-like scent. Not much room left for other aromas, still it doesn’t present itself as a very spiced beer. The same goes for the flavor, except there’s brown sugar as a base. Full to medium body, quite soft on the carbonation. Spiced and sugary finish with a touch of bitterness. Well, a pretty decent Danish Christmas beer, but it’s not very well formulated. 120211
