33cl bottle from Stockmann, Tallinn. Pours pretty clear amber with an off-white head. Aroma of dried fruis, malt, caramelwith notes of flowers and hops. Medium to full body with fairly average carbonation. Sweet, caramely and fruit with a pleasant bitterness in the finish. Well balanced and quite delicious.

Abijen (214) - NETHERLANDS - MAY 20, 2013
Pours a beautiful orange red beer with a good white head. The aroma is sweet. Not that special. I like the taste. Light sweet and bitter. The palate fits well with the taste.

EddyBeer1 (62) - Brussels, BELGIUM - MAY 16, 2013
Ambrée légèrement trouble, pétillance moyenne, fine mousse persistante. Bien maltée, amertume légère, petit goût de caramel sucré et fruité. Un peu trop courte en bouche.

high_on_hops (412) - Burlingame, California, USA - MAY 12, 2013
Pours a slightly hazy orange-amber with a foamy off-white head and lacing. It has a rich aroma of raisin, plum, apple, and sweet malt and spice. The flavor has dark fruit up front with a slightly spicy middle and sweet, rich fruit aftertaste over a medium body and high coronation level. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Lite av kvällens första överraskning. Per bjuder på en flaska han kommit över. Något oklart vilken ålder men troligen ca 7 år. Trevlig doft med lite fikon och russin. Balanserad i smak. Bra grejer

ajnepple (484) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - MAY 9, 2013
On tap at Mayor of Old Town. Caramel colored and pretty clear with a white head. The aroma is malty and sweet with caramel, candy sugar, dark fruit and Belgian yeast. Similar flavor with light alcohol and a medium to full body. Nice and smooth

JaKeAFC (317) - ITALY - MAY 6, 2013
75 cl bottle, 7.5%. Copper color with a big offwhite head. Yeasty nose. Caramel and spices, butterscotch, earthy, grassy hops. Robust taste with a proper balance between sweetnes and bitterness. Well bodied one and easy to go.

Cybercat (2464) - Georgia, USA - MAY 4, 2013
Comes out of the tap a barely translucent sienna. with a decent, if not persistent, light wheat head that still manages to leave some generous lacing. Robust aroma has firm notes of fresh-cut wood, caramel, sweet malt and caramel. Woody hop dominates the flavor, which is more sweet than bitter, and has nice malty, caramel and earthy notes. Firm texture leaves a nice tingly and woody finish. I’m sure Brother Isidorus would be danged proud!
