    Taps hazy amber with a thick and lasting vellum head. Aroma presents pomme and stonefruit, fresh malt, a bit of resiny hops. Flavor yields zesty citrus, pjney hops, tangy pomme and stonefruit, fresh malt. Texture provides firm body and lively fizz. A good thing about winter!

    Clear reddish brown, almost no foam. Sweet aroma of banana, black cherries, vanilla, toffee, dark bread and licorice. Full and sweet malty flavour of toffee, whipped cream, raisin, caramel candied oranges and licoroce. Full-bodied. Yeast, candied almonds and licorice in the finish. No traces of alcohol. Very good.

    Dark mahogany brown, frothy big bubbled head. Ginger, spice. Malty and a touch of tobacco. A bit of melon in the flavor. Surprisingly light body. A bit sweet. Alcohol covered well.

    dark ruby-brown colour, fine and slightly brown-taintd head, lot of licorice in the nose, some notes of chocolate, alcohol and spices, full-bodied and very sweet, the finish is sugary with licorice and alcohol notes - definitely too sweet but it seems to have a huge ageing potential

    Cork: 06/06... Poured a very dark brown / red color with a medium sized, light tan, creamy head that left really nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of citrus, coriander, nutmeg, cinnamon, and caramel. Taste of sweet caramel, vanilla, dried fruits, spicy cinnamon, light warming alcohol, and a silky smooth mouthfeel.
