Berry spiciness in nose and taste a wonderful seasonal treat from a sauve follow ratebeerian: Tibeerious. A splendid way to daydream the hollidays away.....

Aug 19, 2008 overall an ok beer. mild spices, none overpowering. The bottle I had was at least 8 months old, so maybe it lost a little, but it wasn’t that impressive, very bland.

Aug 12, 2008 Bottle, thanks to beerbill! Pours a deep red to regular brown colour with a tan head. Smell is fairly faint, mostly malty, not much hops to speak of. flavour is very sweet, and a little bit bitter. Not much flavour of hops, but plenty of bitterness. There is a bit of roastiness apparent. Carbonation is low, but nice. It’s a touch watery, but not too offensively so.

Aug 5, 2008 bottle thanks to girlfriend. poured a cloudy amber with a beige head and good retention leaving some lacing. aroma was sweet, bananna, and spice. flavor has some spice, caramel, and clove. overall not bad. english strong ales are one of my favorite beers and this one is pretty good.

Aug 4, 2008 50cl bottle from Vinmonopolet. It poured a dark amber colour with a medium creamy head. It has a sweet aroma and smells of toasted malts, caramel and cinnamon. The flavour is smooth and spicy and tastes of caramel, cinnamon and dark berries.
It has a short aftertaste.
