Has its own flavor of caramel, yeast, spices, hops and much more. A very complex beer, which was one of my favorites and could be it again, if I shouldn’t taste all beer in the world. Fresh and with a high drinkability!

Apr 10, 2007 This beer lacks the special taste that makes really something outstanding. The aroma falls a bit flat, the malts have an almost bland quality to them. Not the best, worth a try though

Apr 10, 2007 The aroma has spice, caramel, hops, and dark fruit. The appearance is light brown/red with a large head. The flavor is like the aroma with lots of sweet and a little bitter. The palate is a little thin. Overall it’s a very good beer.

Apr 8, 2007 Bottle. Reddish brown colour with a large tan head. Sweet spicy aroma, a bit like ’Leffe Brune’. Spicy flavour with some sweetness. Carbonation is slighly too high.

Apr 7, 2007 On tap at the Happy Gnome. Dirty copper color with a large white raft. Aromas of toffee and dark rum. I taste pasty tomato, plum and purple grape. Some molasses. Very strange flavors. Quite deep and resonant, with an elusive rich palate. An odd duck.

Mar 19, 2007 0.25l bottle, from the big Grottenbier tulip at the Hopdevil in Zagreb
Poured s nice (very) dark red, almost black. Medium to small beige creamy head. The nose is damn strong and assertive. Grapes, raisins, alcohol, baker’s yeast. Quite vinuous, but not exactly pleasant. The taste is nice, sweet. Quite malty, yeasty, notes of gummi bears. Trace hints of hops. Smooth, and the taste isn’t all that full. Almost stale grape aftertaste. Very good, but not all that spectacular.
