Pours a velvet brown with a big lively tan head. Quite attractive. Smells of clove, cinnamon, allspice, and caramel malt. Big syrupy palate, with rich flavors. Flavors are heavy on the dark fruit (perhaps cherry and plum),with sweet touches of sugar. Finishes sweet with hints of champagne, and is loaded with spice and fruit so as to make this big beer balanced and tasty. Really nice beer! Miksu (2187), Jyväskylä, Finland Jul 3, 2008 0.33 l bottle. Ruby color with big beige head. Malty, spicy and vinous aroma with tart dark fruits and almonds. Malty, toasty and vinous flavor with dark caramel, almonds and dark fruits. Becomes very meaty and vinous with sediment. Alcohol makes this beer very warming but does not add a great deal of complexity as one would expect from a 10.5 abv beer.
