| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 10/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 8, 2006 No date. Dark ruby brown with large, spongey, tan head. Nose of toasty caramel malt, licorice, peppery yeast, dark fruits, mint. Same flavors with some tequila, herbs, alcohol, and chocolate. A touch of absinthe in the finish. Dry, roasty, bittersweet, yeasty, alcoholic aftertaste. Can I say complex? Full, balanced body. Definitely a brew to savor slowly. Excellent. maeib (4703), Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, England
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Apr 14, 2006 75 cl bottle. BBE 10/11/08. A dark brown coloured beer which pours with tan bubbles but these don’t stick around long enough to be described as a head. The aroma is sticky plums and port like vinuous. some aniseed and some licquorice thrown in for good measure. A really big, welcoming aroma. The taste is big and fruity. Some more spices including a dash of cinnamon combine with the alcohol to produce a big Christmas warmer. The depth of flavours are maybe not as brash and as complex as I’d have liked, nor the body as big, but it’s still a good bevvy. tenghave (402), Taastrup, Denmark

Øllens er en typisk belgisk klosterøl tilsat alle julens kryderier.
Duften er meget krydret - mest tydelig er appelsin.
Skummet er let brunt med store bobler.
Smagen er varm, stærk og krydret. Øllen er ikke så tung - men stærk.
Efter et år aftager kryderismagen en del, og øllen er aldeles rund. Dedollewaitor (3642), Odense, Denmark
