bottle, thanks to bu11zeye, dark amber color with a flavor and aroma of herbal black tea and caramel malt

Thanks to bu11zeye for sharing this bottle. The beer pours a brown color with a white head. The aroma is dark fruit and toffee with a nice amount of cinnamon mixed in. A very nice smelling beer and quite a pleasant surprise. The flavor is also very nice and very complex. I get a lot of toffee and brown sugar, but there is also a lot of spice present in the flavor. I get a mix of licorice, cinnamon, ginger and allspice. This tastes a lot like a Belgian version of an pumpkin ale, only minus the pumpkin. Medium mouthfeel and high carbonation. Surprisingly, I thought this was one of the better beers of the night. Definitely one to try if you get the chance.

(330ml bottle) Pours a hazy amber-brown body with a medium beige head. Aroma of cinnamon, gingerbread, allspice, brown sugar, anise, and cherry. Flavor of cinnamon, ginger, brown sugar, and caramel.

Bottle courtesy bu11zeye. First to rate, yay! Pours a slightly hazy reddish brown color with a foamy tan head. Aroma is spiced with some sweet malts. Flavor is sweet and peppery. Spicy on the finish for sure. Sweet and interesting.
