Mysterious aroma of spices like cinnamon, dates, raisins. The taste is soap-like.

Bottle. aroma of malt, chrries and cloves. Deep red colour with beige head. Sweet and spicy flavour. A bit watery.

Bottled 50cl. It pours a clear deep ruby beer with a light beige head. Sweet, reminiscent of raisin throughout. Metallic with a poor malt profile. Artificial. Notes of caramel. Hardly any bitterness. Candy floss is quite present in the taste. Some residual sugars in the finish which offers notes of raisin and candy floss. Vienna malt? Very poor aroma. Mediocre tatse.

Bottle. Sweet raisin, baby powder, and toffee malt aroma. Dark brown color wtih moderate head. Very sweet brown sugar malt flavor - mildly bitter alcohol finish. Low carbonation - moderate acidity. Not very good.

Bottled. A deep red beer with a bubbly brown head. The aroma has notes of malt and caramel as well as light notes of spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel and malt as well as lighter notes of nuts and some cardemomme and other spices, leading to a lightly dry and spicy finish.

Pours dark amber with a nice off-white head. Aroma is caramel, staranis, cinnamon and cardemom. Flavour is sweet caramel, staranis, cardemon, cinnamon, hint of clove, no hop.

pours clear dark amber or dark red-brown, large light-brown head, a bit unstable. aroma is sweet malty, corn, malts. typical for a strong cheap macro. doesn’t remind me much of the better dunkler bock’s i’ve had. warming up i sense a little dark fruits too. flavor is more bock like. sweet malty, alc, faint licorice, toffee, dark caramel, faint roasted stuff. alc flavor is everpresent and disturbing.

Bottle. Dark amber colour with a beige head. Aroma is fruit, spices. Flavour is ginger, cardamom, malt, caramel. Medium body. A little bit boring beer.

Bottle. Nice head with good duration. Color is amber. Aroma and taste are fruits, malt, caramel and spices.

Bottle. a more or less clear beer, some sediments though. Dark amber, with a finger-thick off-white to beige head. Fruity nose with some spicy notes. Cardamom and something else. Malts and some dried fruits too. Quite weak, but at least there’s something. Malty sweet flavor with dried fruits, some spices and a little bitterness towards the finish. Full-bodied, almost sticky. Sweet finish with dried fruits and some spices. A better try than the two other Ice Cap beers, but too weak, and quite boring. (090412)
