3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Dark brown beer with a very, very strong head. The aroma is very mulled and sweety spiced, and the flavour is very sweet with a touch of bitterness and sourness at the finish. Overall a reasonable beer.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured a thick muddy brown with a very thick foamy beige head with good retention. Aroma is rich maltiness, yeast, spices and wood. Flavour is much more sweet then expected. Red fruits, brown sugar, spices with a bitter final. Medium to full body with a fizzy carbonation.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Matly and very hazy brown pour with plenty of carbonation. Very sweet malty and spicy aroma. Flavor was initially light honey, then some peppery spice and finished light and sweet/dry. A good beer, but didn’t leave me wanting more.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle: Poured a murky dirty brow color ale with a super large foamy head with great retention and great lacing. Aroma of sweet malt with typical Belgian malt and light spices mix. Taste is also a very well balanced mix between somerich sweet Belgian malt well balanced by some spices such as coriander and a spicy peppery yeast finish. Body is full with limited filtration and great carbonation with no alcohol was apparent.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
I have to admit I’m skeptical right away. I don’t think I do grain of paradise in my beer. Crazy muddy brown, murky yeasty sludge. Smells like moldy oranges, not sure what that means or what I think about that. Candied sweetness, dark with malt, dense with flavor, but I don’t get much spice, save for a little coriander and juicy mandarin orange on the finish. Hidden heat.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. High and dlong lasting creamy off-white head. Hazy dark orange body. Powerful lemon grapefruit aroma with grassy notes and hops but no alcohol ! Oranges lemon coriander hops flavor with a long bitter aftertaste and a high carbonation. Alcohol well hidden.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
bottle, thanks to SHIG, from the Essen Christmas beer fest leftover sale, pours dark hazy amber with a tall light tan head. Dark malt and fruit nose with notes of orange, cherry, and light alcohol. Taste is sweet and fruity with sweet dark malt, fruity esters, and a grapefruit/apple flavor. Ends with a lingering fruityness and a light alcohol burn. Good stuff.
