Notes of spice on the tip of tongue. A cloudy, reddish color, very nice. Head doesn’t last too long. A subtle beer that finishes clean and is easy on the palate. Sweet with a good sense of malt and hops.

33 cl bottle, Rotterdam, Netherlands. Deep ruby amber colour. Juniper and some clove on the aroma with prune and alcohol. Sweet, caramel, then a mouth filling hop finish.

wunderbier (1434) - Tampere, FINLAND - DEC 19, 2003
0.25 L draft serving, Mc Chouffe glass. Tall, foamy, off-white head is slowly diminishing and sits on a deep brown body with ruby highlights. Nutty, toasted rye bread malt (M); flowery hops (L); toffee and various candi sugar aromas. Moderately sweet, lightly acidic flavor becomes a moderately sweet, moderately bitter, moderately acidic, lightly sour finish. Medium body, oily texture, lively carbonation. The bottom line is: a little sour, but strong a nutty otherwise; a decent scotch ale.

BeerBiker (1412) - Odense, DENMARK - DEC 29, 2006
[Sampled in Trysil, Norway.] A worldclassbeer. Toffeehead and complexi aroma of fruits and yeast. Oaky flavor with brown sugar and some smoke, just a hint. Looking forward to visit brasserie Achouffe in Belgium in august 2007.
