bottle, thanks pivnizub. Spicy malt aroma. dark golden, lightheaded. Crackermalt base, peppery, butter, grassy hops lightly underbalanced. Mellow mouthfeel. Could do with a dimension or two more.

Herb-süßer Beginn mit hellmalzigen Noten. Im Mittelteil würzgiger, süffig, angenehm. Noch etwas süßer werdend, was nun auch stört. Der Hopfen ist gering und hinter der Süße anzusiedeln. Zwischenzeitlich wässrig. 8/9/10/8/8/8

Bottle (purchased at the brasserie): Deep golden, small lacy white head; bisquity-malty nose with a tinge of vanilla and some traces of "woody" hops; moderate sweet-bitter flavour; quite short malty-nutty finish with hops and fruits. Good brew.....

(bottle) Clear, golden colour with a short and slightly off-white foamy head. Caramel-malty aroma with bready notes, vanilla and a touch of alcohol and traces of dms. Moderately sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a calm carbonation. Cara-malty and slightly bready taste with a tinge of herbal hops in the background; slightly doughy malty and shy hoppy finish. Not that remarkable. 05.VI.10
