(330ml bottle) Pours like a bottle of Coke, with a small ring of white bubbles around the glass, and lots of bubbles coating the bowl. Winey aroma, laced with light coriander. Thick body. Flavors of bubble gum and light sweetness of plum. Not much in the way of hop character. Interesting to try, but not my type of beer.

Poured clear amber with weak off white head. The aroma just jumps out of the glass when poured. Smells like a load of coriander but it isn’t too bright. That aroma seems to mix with a pronounced raisin note as well as lesser amounts of dark chocolate and something vaguely smoky. Interesting flavor with the smooth coriander, a bag full of raisins, dried plums, dark chocolate and hints of smoke. Certainly an interesting combination.

33cl bottle at Amundsen. Pours dark brown with a reddish hue and a small off-white head. Fruity aroma with lots of caramel, malt and hints of spices. Quite sweet and caramelly, a bit too much for my liking. Decent beer but not a favourite.

Small brown/tan head. Hazy dark brown color. Coriander nose with some caramel notes.Med/full body, creamy mouthfeel. Citrusy, coriander flavor backed up with some chocolate, fruits and hints of cherries.Finish is nearly dry. Coriander is a bit too big and lasting though.

pours a dark tanish brown, cola color, with no head or lacing. The aromar is of malts, dark fruits like plum, rasin, fig, roasted malts, caramel, some scottch, spices, corriander and lemon peel. The taste is of sweet malts, sugars and spices start this off. Lots of fruits mixed with the caramel malts gives this a ton of flavor. Very syrupy, the addition of corriander and brown sugars really comes out. A lot of fig and plum with some scottch really adds complexity. The mouthfeel is thin, even though it does taste syrupy. The tounge gets the malts, sugars and fruits, were palate gets alot of malts and the spices, espically corriander. Aftertaste is sweet, thin and fruity.

Pours a dark brown with a good sized tan head which leaves some spotty lacing. Spice and smoke aroma but quite weak. This ale deserves a better mouthfeel, seems a little watery. Love the flavour. Sweet malts, licorice, chocolate and some spice. Would have again.

Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 10 | Overall: 9
Strong aroma has a malty and fruity core and a firm smoky overtone with molasses and mocha notes, more like a stout or porter. It pours a dark, barely translucent chocolate brown with a respectable light tan head that leaves some generous lacing. Mouth-filling flavor has firm fruity, malty, nutty and caramel tones plus subtle chocolate, coffee and toffee notes. It is sweet but not cloying, with just a touch of hop bitterness and a firm alcohol nip. Smooth, heavy texture has a syrupy feel and not a whole lot of fizz. This one is worthy of a hunt.

330 ml capped bottle. Poured in a snifter an opaque and extremely dark-brown, close to black, coloured Ale with a small one finger beige foamy head that had a short retention and tons of micro bubbles. No carbonation. Poor lacing. The aroma is roasted malts, dark ripe fruits, raisins, plums, a touch of spices and molasses. The flavour is burnt roasted malts, cooked vegetables, cabbages, fruity,ripe raisins, figs, plums, chocolate, a touch of spices, coriander and herbal notes. The mouthfeel is fizzy, sparkling, fulled and smooth. This full bodied Ale has a dry sweety and bitter finish. A rich flavoured and interesting Ale.
