Dark brown color, initial with brown foam head, but that is fading away quickly. Sweet aroma, not surprising as sugar is added to this beer. Bit too sweet taste for me, not bad, but sweet. (Velp 201212)

Pours out in a hazy reddish brown colour with a low thick tan-coloured foam. Sweet aroma of roasted malts, dried cherries, spices, milky chocolate and almonds. Medium-bodied with notes of raisins, caramel, fudge and brown sugar. Clean mouthfeel for the style. Low bitterness in the finish with notes of dried fruit, caramel and almonds. Not entirely exciting example but still decent.

Dark brown opaque colour with broiwn big head. Aroma is toffee, caramellish malts with slight roasted hints. Some yeast also, which is a bit disturbing. Flavour is yeasty, roasted malts, caramel and candy sugary. The finish has a big sugary peak. Aftertaste is maily toffee and roasted caramel malts. Pleasant brew, though the yeast is a bit interfering in this one.

Opaque black with khaki head. Head is thick, lasting and clingy. Aroma is nice roasty malt and chocolate. Flavor isn''t as rich as the smell would have you believe. The high carbonation overwhelms the flavor a bit.

Very nice one. Deep brown color, very little foam (not a minus for this beer), fresh malty aroma. Very original and well balanced taste with malty and spicy beginning, sour and delicate sweet (fruits and chocolate), with constantly going fresh and mild at the end, with long lasting plesant aftertaste.

It pours brown in color, with a lasting tan head. Malty flavor. Pretty good.

This beer poured with a thick bubbly head. It yeast was dominant in the aroma and overall flavor. It started out with a mild yeasty flavor with a hint of malt. The mouthfeel was somewhat silky/buttery. This was followed by more yeast and a sharp burnt flavor and finished slightly sweet. At 6.5% ABV this beer was somewhat easy despite the yeasty bitterness that had a somewhat long aftertaste.

Brown color with decent tan head. Nutty and dried fruit aroma. A bit high in carbonation for me. A bit tart as well.
