Bottle. Amber colour with a medium mostly lasting head. Rich malty and fruity aroma and taste with hoppy notes.

It feels like a burning tongue, maybe it’s the dark malt or alcohol moderation. Very malty beer with the same roasted flavor all way throug.

Bottle 75 cl. with cork stoppers. Dark brown with a red tinge. Small off white head. Scent of hard rest, almost roasted malt, caramel and orange. The taste is slightly sweet and slightly bitter at the same time. The taste bear the imprint of the very hard roasted malt. Indefinable but not pleasant aftertaste.

Malzig-herber Antrunk, mittelwürzig, im Mittelteil intensiver werdend. Etwas süßlich, die Herbe bleibt hier gleich, wird aber im Abgang stärker. Die Würzigkeit ist ok, könnte aber stärker sein, besonders angesichts dessen, dass dies als Winterbier deklariert ist. Süffiges Bier mit fruchtigen Herbenoten. Im Grunde aber nichts wirklich besonderes. 11/9/9/8//9

(Draught@Pikkulintu, sampled 2009-12-02) Murky dark reddish brown with a small head. Fruity nose with yeast and some spices. Quite spicy and smooth flavor with yeast. A nicely clean, Belgian-style Xmas brew.

Bottle. Deep amber colour with a nice beige head. Aroma and flavour of malt, hops, spice, caramel, chocolate and fruit.

Medium light brown head. Hazy dark red body. Fruity spicy roasty wooden aroma with toffee and chocolate notes. Dry-sweet chocolatey spicy wooden taste with roasty alcohol notes. Mid-bodied. Dry, faintly astringent, earthy wooden chocolate aftertaste with spicy oranges notes. Nice, but maybe a bit cloying. (0.75l bottle, gift.)

Keg (Pikkulintu, Helsinki, Winter beers 2009)
Deep red, smalll keggy head. Caramelly aroma, some roastiness too. Fairly slidgy palate. Pleasant carbonation, but a bit sharp on the tongue when combined with the biting taste. Over-spiced and just too sludgy.
