Aroma : Raisins, red fruits. Quite a lot of oxidisation.
Taste : Raisins, red fruits, still lots of oxiydisation. Finish is a tiny bit tart. Some notes of oak as well.
Overall : I suspect this was very old. Lots of oxidisation. Not very good.

Pour is cloudy brown with a beige head that dissapears quickly to nothing. I get very sweet scents of caramel, brown sugar a malt. Taste is bitter sugar and spice. Feel is thin chaulky and dry finish.

Hazy brown with a dense head. Yeasty aroma - very t IJ-like - with further notes of nuts and berries. The flavour is sweet and malt-dominated - but a bit too much in the long run.

2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 JanEric (652) - Meppel, NETHERLANDS - DEC 24, 2009
Pours out heavily with lots of foam and yeast in the bottle. Half the bottle disappears on the table. What remains is a hazy dark brown glass, with a dense creamy head. Aroma of caramel, clove, nutmeg and coriander. tastes very caramel-like, a bit sweet and also alas a bit watery. I miss the balance in this beer.
