Head is initially huge, frothy, rocky, off-white, mostly lasting. Body is
hazy dark orange-brown, dense tiny particles, bottle conditioned. Aroma is
moderately malty (cookie, caramel), lightly hoppy (flowers, herbs), lightly yeasty (cobwebs), with notes of coriander, tangerine, licorice, clove, and brown sugar. Flavor is moderately sweet, moderately acidic, moderately bitter. Finish is moderately bitter, moderately acidic. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. I don’t like the acidity in this context too much, but oh, what an aroma!

Jun 18, 2008 25 cl bottle: poured clear light brown with a medium sized light brown head. Dark fruit in the aroma-prunes, raisins, a hint of banana. Nice aroma actually. The taste is fruity with raisins dominating. Fairly dry to me. I thought there would be more sweetness in it. Good beer.
