Bouteille 750ml. De couleur brune-rouge et voilée. Nez de levures fruitées (prunes, léger de figues, notes de raisins vineux, traces de mûres), d’épices (notes de clou de girofle et de coriandre, traces de cannelle), malté de caramel sucré et léger de sucre brun, moyen-léger d’alcool sucré avec des notes de houblon herbeux. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture moyennement crémeuse. Goût de levures fruitées sucrées (prunes, moyen de figues, notes de raisins aux notes vineuses, traces de mûres et de cerises) accompagné d’un moyen goût épicé (note de coriandre, traces de clou de girofle et de cannelle) et de traces de réglisse noire lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût malté de caramel avec un moyen goût de sucre brun (traces de sucre bonbon). Parallèlement, l’on retrouve un goût réchauffant d’alcool doux jusqu’en finale accompagné d’une légère amertume de houblon herbeux ainsi que de traces d’épices (poivre très doux). Post-goût moyen-long et aux notes sèches, moyennement amer d’alcool avec des notes de houblon herbeux ainsi qu’avec un goût fruité (pelures de prunes, notes de moût de raisins).

33cl Bottle from De Bierkoning. Dark reddish amber brown colour, off-white head. Big ugly floaties after the second pour. Sweet aroma of christmas cake, caramel, spice, fruits, cognac, very complex and interesting. Flavour is sweet, caramel and malts, fruits and christmas spices, but not nearly as complex as the nose. Lots of carbonation, but not aggressive. Medium to fullbodied. A very nice tasting beer. Good stuff.

Bottled(750ml). -Dark brown coloured, small to medium off-white head, dried fruits nose. Sweet malty, caramel and dried fruits taste with notes of spices and plums. Alcohol is very noticable, a bit syrupy but very good Noel.

Bottle, Barleycorns, Nantwich. Easy there santa...lost a chunk of this all over the work surface as this exploded in to life. Strange looking grey tinged dark cloudy brown colour with a fair amount of sediment floating around. Aroma was spicy with some malt and dark fruit. Similar flavour which was sticky sweet and slightly cloying. Balance not quite there. Thought this would be a lot better; a let down.
