Grovlam (4108) - Copenhagen, - DEC 26, 2009
Bottle 50 cl. No apparent head with a dark reddish like color. Aroma was very Christmas spicy like with raisins and cinnamon as the predominant notes. Also strong alcohols, with an herbal and light marzipan feel as well. Full bodied with no carbonation. Heavy sweet flavor. Lingering warming alcoholic and spicy finish.

Courtesy TheCheeseman. Served warm. Severe alcohol aroma, rotten apples, raisins. Deep copper color, slight tan head. Taste is better than the aroma, cinnamon spice, raisins, still an alcohol presence. Interesting.

BelgianBeerGal (2224) - Dayton Area, Ohio, USA - SEP 8, 2010
75cl bottle provided by Markus. Pretty interesting, tasty and unique. My biggest notes are about the booze-like appearance, the spicey flavor and the sweet honey notes in the background. Drinks way lower than the 16 ABV. Would be awesome on a winter evening in Denmark but still nice in Texas in June.
