| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Oct 5, 2008 Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin orangey head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of spices - especially cardemomme, reminding me of a Christmas cake. The flavor is sweet with notes of cake dough, spices - especially muscat nuts and cinnamon, and candied sugar. The body is thin. Reminds of of Danish Brunkager. Papsoe (15178), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Dec 1, 2007 (Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of kmweaver. Slightly hazy, pale amber golden with a small, off-white head. Very oddly spiced nose. Medium body with sweet caramel and then a broad palette of spices with cardamom and cinnamon sticking out. Subdued bitterness. This is....odd....in a way that’s really hard to get friendly with. 301107 yespr (12443), Copenhagen O, Denmark
| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/20 | Dec 14, 2007 From bottle, no 12 at Papsoes blindtasting. Pours slight hazy orange with a lacing head. Heavy heavy cardemomme aroma, slight cinnamon on top. Flavour is strangely spiced, reminds me of baking powder. Has a slight soapy flavour/feel. Ends with subdued ginger note. Overspiced and soapy. Yet it isn’t terrible. omhper (12335), Stockholm, Sweden
| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 1/5 | 6/20 | Sep 24, 2008 Updated: Sep 27, 2009 Bottled, thanks PilsnerPeter! Clear deep golden, minimal head. Overpowering gingersnaps aroma. Very sweet with thick, dense mouthfeel. A one flavour beer - fatty gingersnaps and sweet potatoe is the clostes I can relate to. Very sugary, extremely sweet and very powerful. Alcohol and syrup dominates the finish along with this extreme spice flavour. As subtle as an elephant in an antique store and as refreshing as tabasco. A beer for sipping in minimal amounts, but that really has no depth or even any pleasant flavours. fonefan (11982), VestJylland, Denmark
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 24, 2009 Bottle 65cl. @ home. Clear medium orange color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting - diminishing, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate to light heavy spicy, cloves, moderate pumpkin, christmas spice, cinnamon, cardamom, wood. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and moderate bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20090926] oh6gdx (9153), Vasa, Finland

Aroma is very much Xmas cookies along with some pumpkin and mild notes of hops. Flavour is much the same. A real spicebomb joergen (8714), Frederiksberg, Denmark

hazy copper, wispy off white head,
rich caramel malt aroma with a nice sweet pumpkin candy character, lots of spices especially cinamon and nutmeg, touch of vanilla and crystalized ginger,
rich malt flavor, strong candy caramel character enhanced by a vanilla sweetness, nice array of spices are body enough to be a majorplayer yet subdued enough to be in balance with the pumpkin, light balancing bitterness,
like a spiced pumpkin candy
