My 1500th rating. 33 cl. bottle. Vintage -BB 08/06. Thanks a lot Bierkoning. Pours unclear golden with a full creamy lasting head. Aroma is very sweet & matured - nearly vinous of malts, fruits (orange) & Yeast. Crisp & quite fresh taste. Sticky & oily palate. Taste is fruity & spicy - a bit herbal. Alcohol is close to not being visible! Feeling blessed for being able to try this!

330 ml bottle. A bit hazy, dark golden body with a medium off-white head. Aroma is sweet and spice with a hint of alcohol. Flavor is ……. wheat beer, fruity, spicy etc. with strong alcohol flavor. Not to balanced, but quite drinkable anyway. A bit unusually for a wheat beer, but still a wheat beer. A drink for the people who enjoys the fresh fruitiness of a wheat, but are in a hurry for getting drunk??

330ml bottle bought at Corks, Bristol in 2006. deep golden colour with a moderate off-white head that left some lacing. Aroma of sweet malts, spice and herbs. Flavour had some honey, sweet fruit and a bitter finish. Good.

Hazy dull beige colour. Spicy yeast nose with a good peppery alcohol shot. Perhaps a bit oxidized, but some peachy notes, clean alcohol and warm maltiness.

Bottle, 8.5%. Slightly spicy aroma. Cloudy, dark golden colour, big rocky head. Peppery flavour, OK mouthfeel. The bitterness is a bit rough, which suits this beer, giving it balance.
Bottle, 8.7%. BB 1992, 16 years ago. Very vinous aroma, some yeast and mold. Cloudy dark grey orange colour, some floaties. Bready flavour, very nasty port and old rotten yeast. Unrateable. 1 1 1 1 1
