Bottle. Pours a medium brown with a frothy off white head. Smells of spice, and roasted malt with a hint of fruit. Tastes like candi, caro syrup, fruit, and roasted malt. Syrupy texture. Medium bodied. Finishes spicy, with some alcohol.

Bouteille 33cl. Nez de melasse et de miel de sarrasin. Beaucoup de matiere en bouche avec encore la melasse, le miel de sarrasin mais aussi le malt et du caramel. L’ensemble est ici un peu trop sirupeux et disjoint a mon gout personnel. Je ne racheterais pas.

Finn (2453) - Tromsø, NORWAY - DEC 1, 2011
Flaske 0,33l på Afspanning t’ Waagstuk, Antwerpen 28 Apr 11. Brunrød. Skummet forsvinner nesten helt. Svak surøl-aroma. Smaken svakt syrlig. Et “surøl-light”. Blir litt ensformig - men god.
