May 3, 2008 33cl bottle courtesy of Hogtownharry. Thanks! Deep chestnut pour unleashes a billowing fluffy beige froth. Aromas of mint and dark fruit(plum, black cherry) upfront followed by floral spiciness and yeast. The flavour profile is sweet candied dark fruit with Belgian candy sugars. Following that there is a nice licorice component with other spices and sweet roasted nuts. Quite creamy and easy to drink considering the weight. Quite good. Thanks for the bottle Harry!

Apr 30, 2008 Pours a dark brown with tan head that falls to a thin layer. Aroma is figs and anise. Has a medium-heavy body with a good level of carbonation. Taste is a mixture of anise and alcohol with a mild bitter aftertaste. This is a really good beer.

Apr 24, 2008 Pours dark copper with off white head. Aromas of bread dough, caramel, brown sugar and dark fruits. Flavors are same as aromas. Medium to full body with prickly carbonation, creamy mouthfeel and slight warmth of alcohol. An excellent brew from one of my favorite breweries.

Apr 16, 2008 Updated: Apr 17, 2008Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Chestnut brown. Anise, green spices, bubblegum and brown sugar in the aroma; very spicy, full of prickly, zesty character. Flavor is very nutty, with lots of roasted hazelnut and that pungent black licorice-anise sweet sharpness warming the body throughout; rich candied fruit sweetness. Palate is full, generous and sparkly with long life in the warming, fruity overripe banana and berry finish. Heavy, with a chasing bitterness consistently present. Prime example; satisfyingly dense and thorough with no residual weight.

Apr 16, 2008 absolutley loved this beer. On tap at erasmus. Went perfectly with the candy glaze of the rabbit I had as a main course. Rich candied flavor, dark fruits and currents. Possibly the best food/beer pairing I have ever experienced. At the recommendation of the owner. I’m glad he convinced me to change my order.
