A Mes rate: Draught at Kerstfest, Essen.
Dark cloudy brown with no head. Amazing hit of coca cola in the aroma with notes of yeast, citrus and malt but... OMG coca cola with knobs on!!! Slightly smoked malt in the flavour with heavy citrus and a lovely hint of sourness in the finish. Very interesting stuff.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dark brown, hazy; very yellowish head, dense. Soupy and spicey nose (coriander), warm-alcoholic. slight sweet taste, spiced & roasted malts; retronasal coca-cola like. Slight burning mouthfeel (carbonation & roasted malts). Delicate, yes, but a bit unsatisfying too. Not really a big Christas beer.

I don’t remember seeing ’di Noye’ on the label, but the colour matched this one
330ml bottle (One Pint, Helsinki)
Cloudy dark brown, small tight persistent head. Sharp sour and spicy aroma. Massive spicy and sour taste. Tingly sourness and carbonation on the tongue. Final taste is more like coffee - rich burnt or roasted malts. With yeast, it’s softer, less sour, and nuttier. Some dark berries hidden in the bitterness and sourness.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
(Bottled@Kerstbierfestival 2007, Essen) Muddy dark brown with a small and lemonadey, but quite lasting head. Interesting aroma of oranges, anise and some smoke. Sour and cinnamon-spicy flavor with some maltiness and low bitterness. Medium-bodied, low-carbonated and acidic palate. Not very clean, but pleasantly tart.
