Brownish red beer, cream head. Rather sweet malts aroma, caramel, slightly roasted with a light acidic tone. Flavour malty, rather sweet, some slight roasted malts bitterness. Finish short but rather sweet. OK, not brilliant.

10/06/2011 33cl bottle @ home - BB: 1/04/2011 (2011-256) Thanks to Geers for the free bottle (it's true I would never have given any money for this)
Completely clear red brown beer, creamy off-white head, pretty stable and adhesive. Aroma: caramel, some citrus fruits. MF: good carbon, light to medium body, bit watery texture. Taste: caramel, some malts, bit of citrus. Aftertaste: little bitter, but watery. Some mocha and alcohol. OK, have to admit it's not undrinkable, but it's pretty watery and not a Christmas beer by far.

Verhaltener, später deutlicherer Malzantrunk, in dem süße und verbrannte Malznoten zu gleichen Teilen enthalten sind. Nach diesem durchaus angenehmen Antrunk stagniert das Bier und ruht sich auf der süßlichen Malzigkeit aus. Wenig getreidig, auch der Alkohol ist ganz leicht spürbar. Getürbt wird das bisher positive Bild durch den trockenen und leicht bitteren Abgang, der nicht zu der vorher herrschenden Süße passenden will. Solide! 9/11/11/11/8/11

(15.03.2011) bottle@home: got the last bottle at the store, red fruit, brown sugar, minor spices, some liquorice, bit like a fruiter & simpler Leffe Brune, too thin/light for Christmas beer, not really impressive, mostly a marketing (07.01.2018) Dark amber, tanned head. nose is fish guts, plastic, chemcial,.. Unpleasant burned sugar, chemcial, plastic, fish guts, nasty, definetly worse than I remember. Like a strange awful sugary industrial lager of sorts. 3.1 ->2.5
