Het kent een kruidig karakter met een zachte bitterheid. De kleur is bruin-paarsdonker. De smaak is karaktervol door enkele soorten gebrande gersten die gebruikt worden bij het brouwen en die op natuurlijke wijze kleur geven aan dit prachtige bier.

Bottle at home. Aroma of malt, caramel, brown sugar, toffee, dried fruits, yeast, spices and herbs. Flavour is sweet. Body is medium. Good beer with a tasty aroma, but a bit heavy on the sugary sweetness.

Cabbage-like yeastaroma and flavor. Chichorei and a hint of mango fruit. Caramel. Sticky, smelly and skunky.

Bottle. Gusher, that pours a big yet rapidly fading white head, over a unclear, red-brown beer. Smell is sharp malts, bit bitter. taste is sharp, bitter, metallic and yeasty. Somewhat spiced. I also get aromatic dark maltyness towards the aftertaste, with a strong sweet undertone.

Helder donkerrood bier met veel schuim. Smaak is licht zoet en fruitig, kersen, caramel en anijs. Komt helaas iets waterig over maar smaak is gewoon goed.
