Bottle at Bjergtrolden. Dark orange with a off-white head. Aoma moderate malty (caramel, roasted, anise) and hoppy. Flavor moderate sweet, discrete bitter. Medium to fulll body. I really liked it!

(Bottle, thanks omhper!) Pours copper red with an off-white/light sand-colored head. The aroma is heavily sweet and medium spicy with tones of white sugar, honey, cookies, bread, caramel, soft fruit candy, mint/menthol and liquorice-like anise alongside hints of cinnamon. Herbal hops lurking in the background. A tiny touch of band aid-like phenols and rust. The flavour is medium to heavily sweet and light bitter with tones of white sugar/candi sugar, cookies, caramel, fruit candy, liquorice, anise, menthol, herbs and light band-aid. The mouthfeel is clean - too clean/sterile/lifeless to be an enjoyable Belgian Bubbel. Medium carbonation. Spices, herbs and an almond paste and marzipan-like sweetness lingers. Medium boded.

Bottled. A red beer with a thin off-white head. The aroma is sweet with spicy notes of star anise as well as some others, and a bit of caramel. The flavor is very sweet again with strong spicy notes of primarily star anise, but also som cloves with weak notes of caramel , over ripe fruits, and dusty hops underneath. The finish is dry and spicy and the star anise note lingers for a long time. Too powerful on the star anise for me.

Hazy, redish amber with small , off-white head. Hebal tones with some maltiness. Malt and herbs. Medium body with a slightly bitter finish.

From Voldby, DK. Bottled, 050908. Amber with Ok head. Aroma of anise and malt. Flavor of caramel, liqourice and cane sugar. Balanced anise tone.

Color was brown and cloudy. Very foamy tan head. This was an interesting beer, spiced with anise for a sweet licorice flavor. A pleasant anise aroma is also present. Good when pared with something sweet. The alcohol strength is well hidden in this beer.

Bottle at ÅBF08. Distinct anis aroma. Cough syrup. Hazy brown colour. The flavour is distinctly anisy, good malt base, some sweetness. Quite good.

Bottle 50cl.

Flavor is moderate to light heavy sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. (170508)

Let og sødlig smag af frugt (blomme/rosin), stjerneanis (for meget), julekrydderier og lidt karamel. Medium krop. For meget stjerneanis til den noget "tynde" smag.

Bottle at Ølfestival 2008, Århus
Amber color. There is some aroma of caramel, cookies and light anis. Medium-thin mouthfeel, sweet caramel flavor, some anis, cookies; low bitterness. Not my kind, but correctly brewed.
