Grainy aroma, but not overly, with sweet melanoidiny malt that is not spicy and has only barely perceptible hops. Clear orange-brown with quickly dropping, white cover. The flavour is actually quite gentle for this style, with grainy and slightly caramelly malt and plenty of hops flavour that nicely blends into the malt flavour, ending with a refreshing bitterness that combines with a medium carbonation, to really pacify this 6.5% brew. Perhaps some nutty notes. Medium body, slightly bitter finish.
yespr (7785), Copenhagen O, Denmark Nov 30, 2008 50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a slowly diminishing white head. Roasted malty and spiced aroma. Smooth malty and roasted carame flavoured. Light dryness and mild bitterness into the finish. Nice breadish lasting finish. Ober (526), Best, Netherlands Nov 18, 2008 A clear amber colored beer, with a thick beige head. The aroma of caramel malt, a little chocolate with coffee candies. The taste of dark caramel, sweet, bitter and some dark cherries. A little spicey. The aftertaste is long bitter but smooth. MiP (6337), Flensburg, Germany Oct 31, 2008 Bottle, 6.5% at LCRBM08. Malty aroma and flavour. The flavour is also quite malty, nicely peppery, warming. jbrus (4305), Delft, Netherlands Oct 26, 2008 Bottle@Home. Very malty aroma with some herbal hops. Amber color, firm beige head, good lace. Light sweet, malty, pretty bitter, toffee, herbal hops. Bit on the thin side. cgreb (84), Marburg, Germany Sep 4, 2008 bottle - amber red beer with white head. Sweet malt aroma. Flavour is malty sweetness with a strong alcoholic touch, but not what you would expect of a 6.5% beer.
