4.9 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 20/20 corkyrory66 (232) - - FEB 1, 2013Ah Noël, quelle belle période pour la bière ! Bon ici on approche de la Chandeleur,
mais c’est autorisé comme bière d’hiver, et donc tout va bien...
9% abv, tout ceci doit réchauffer quelque peu.
Couleur roux foncé, un rien cuivré en transparence.
Clarté opaque, sauf en transparence.
Bulles moyennes bien vivantes au centre du verre.
Mousse beige moyen qui tombe et nappe mais sans aspect crémeux.
Odeurs de prune, poire cuite, pointe de candi, pruneau, épices fines.
Volume plus liquide que soyeux.
1ère bouche d’un bel ensemble vin/fruits/bois mais paradoxalement sans texture
stucturée.
2ème bouche sur le croissant, la cassonnade, la prune, mais toujours aussi souple.
3ème avec un nez d’avoine et un équilibre céréale/houblon. Arrière-bouche un peu
vineuse.
Longueur sur la pomme de terre, les fruits mûrs, très bien mais pas de réel décolage.
Levure souple et vineuse. Alcool bien dosé, sans excès.
La finale manque jute d’une texture plus « solide ».
Donc beaucoup d’espoir, une très belle réalisation, qui manque juste à 1/50ème...

Amber with light brown head - good malt aroma with some spice - good malt body with a good dose of spice in there as well - Long spicey finish with some alcohol heat in the end - this has a good and spicy taste to it
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 mzaar (884) - Varberg, SWEDEN - APR 2, 2013
Flaska. Konjaksfärgad med ett nästan ohälsosamt generöst vitt skum. Till en början är det helt doftlöst. Det tar sin tid, uppemot en 15 minuter eller så, innan anisen framträder. Det är inte mycket annat som får plats, men körsbär gör sitt bästa för att slåss om utrymmet. Körsbären är mer framträdande i smaken tillsammans med lakritsen och julnötter.

33 cL bottle from Beers of Europe into an Affligem glass. Dark brown with a creamy head. Creamy roast, nice crisp taste. Spiced, and a little sweet.

1.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20 AbbeyRoade (35) - Missouri, USA - MAR 4, 2013
Dark fruit flavor with a strange spice taste. Not an easy beer to swallow with its unique bite. Definitely not my favorite mix of malts and fruits in a beverage...
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 teddybeer (1484) - Madrid, SPAIN - FEB 22, 2013
Bottled. Dark rubi colour with a creamy light beige head with a good duration. Aroma is toasty, candy sugar and chocolate. Flavor has toasted malts notes, moderate sweet, alcoholic, chocolate cookies. The final has a decent alcoholic sensation with good duration. Smooth, creamy and rounded on palate.

Hazy dark ruby color with small light brown foam head. Aroma is heavy barley, but also wheat, hay and grass. Taste is complex, some sweet, but more so yeast, earth, grass. Aftertaste is somewhat bitter. (Velp 201302)

Bit too boozy. Licorice and aniseed, dark fruits, rum n raisin.22 characters to go. Actually, 22 would be a real triumph.

Hm nice beer. Little like old-fashioned candy with the taste. Strong ale with a rich taste. Love this for the winter.
