An unclear dark orange beer with a very fine creamy head. The aroma is very sweet and fruity. The flavor is powerful, sweet, fruity but in a special way, probably because of the spice blend, its hard to be specific - it contains orange and some peber and others. A nice powerful goodnight beer. It ends on a woody dryness and a slight bitterness - with the dryness sticking with you.

UPDATED: JAN 9, 2006 (Bottle 33 cl) Beautiful amber coloured beer with a tall, pretty head. Hazy and unclear. Full-bodied, rather fruity with a pleasant soft hop-touch. Extremely easy to drink in spite of the high alcohol. A very warming strong abbey beer. 060993

Bottled. Orange colour, big fluffy white head. Aroma of alcohol and caramel. And lots of other stuff. Flavour is also full with caramel, alcohol, malts dry fruits.
