Fully hazy orange-amber; slim orangeish rim. Bit oxydized nose, biscuit, aromas as from sweet (homemade) fruit wine. Very liqueurish taste, fruity and estery. Citrus-like finish, sweet and thick but not cloying. Oranges on liqueur, orange/mango chutney, dried mango meat (amchur). Very full-bodied, slick, oily mouthfeel, nearly chewy. Alcohol creeps in with a vengeance. Superb variation on - euhh, they say Barley Wine, could be Weizen Bock, could be Belgian Strong - anything. Most impressive I find that it is quite (dangerously) drinkable - until warming up. Ought to be served in a cooler as, indeed, white wine.

Tan/amber, hazy, big head; nose - fruit, spices (ginger, mace), malts (cookie dough). Complex palate - chocolate, plums, apples, black pepper, hot from the oven biscuits. Warm, firm, complex.
