Dark golden pour and a small head Fine intensity in the aroma Tad sweet. But absolutely decent for a beer like this Fine carbonation level. Dangerously easy to drink Well masked alcohol level Toffee, malty, fruity and vanilla in the flavor [Bottle from Mikkeller in Copenhagen, Denmark]

Bottle. Pours hazy amber with a medium white head. Aromas of slight vanilla, some sweeter malty notes, pretty good amount of alcohol, slight orange sweetness. Taste is caramel, malty sweetness, some vanilla, pretty yeasty, some hops and slight spices, fruity coffee notes, not much actual coffee taste though. A bit of a letdown.

Bottle shared in London - big thanks to Danny! Pours clear orange with a small, foamy topping. Somewhat muted aroma, some orange peel, grainy bread. Big sweet flavour, some meringue, toffee, angel food cake. Full bodied, lightly chewy, with fine carbonation. Somewhat warming in the finish, with lightly toasted sugars, caramel, hints of coffee, bread, golden raisins. Very nice.

330 ml bottle shared by Geiserich, thanks!
Orange, hazy body, with a quite small, frothy, yellowish head.
Aroma of caramel, citrus, orange, some biscuit, some spices.
Tastes of caramel, citrus, peach, orange, some cocoa, some spices, some alcohol.
Medium, slick mouthfeel, with a soft carbonation.
Finishes quite boozy, sweet malty, fruity, hoppy, a bit fruity.

Nice one, but not so special. A bit one-dimensional in my opinion, while really well balanced. Overall not among my favourite one from the Beer Geek range, but nice.
