Dark golden ale with a thick off white head. Nutty aroma with coriander notes. Nice fresh biscuitty malt aroma, with light coriander, orange, herbal overtones, fruity esters, and light cinnamon. Bottle at BCTC 2006.

Red-amber, clear; thick yellowish head, going lacey. Coriander, alcohol, faint other spices (maybe some cinnamon) in the nose. Taste is a potpourri of spices (with lots of coriander) extracted in alcohol. I'm pretty sure of quite some fusels. Bitterish-burning finish as from raw alcohol. Quite oily, slick mouthfeel (~? fusels) and of course alcoholburn. Big body. Huge beer, no doubt, but quite unrefined. Somehow, I had expected more from De Hemel.

Clear orange brown, short head. Caramel aroma, spicy in the way all the de Hemel brews are. Strong taste, caramel malty, alcoholic. Quite alcoholic palate, but not really unpleasant. Belly warming.

The aroma is sweet malty with strong notes of caramel. The color is red and it has a fine though collapsing head. The flavor is sweet and malty with strong notes of caramel. A great beer, unfortunatly tasted late in a long session.
