Bottle from Bierothek online shop, 1y expired, it was in my fridge a very long time. Dark brown with a moderate head. Super herbal nose, it smells fantastically like a ginger & spice-filled Christmas cookie / Lebkuchen. Flavor is fat, smooth, a bit of chocolate mixed with the spices. Nice mouthfeel, really tasty.
