330ml Bottle - Dark brown in colour. Cinnamon, cloves and pumpkin dominate in the aroma. Malty and spicy taste with cinnamon, cloves, pumpkin and toffee detected. The spices start to become a bit much by the end of the bottle.

From the tap, at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours amber, with abundant greyish foam. Aroma is somehow malty and sweet. Body is tendentially light. Taste is sweet with some spicing and some bittersweet which I guess comes from the pumpkin.

33 cl. bottle @ home, bought @ van Rooij, Culemborg. Clear dark orange with a thin off-white head. Malty aroma with lots of cinnamon and ginger. Medium sweet taste and an earthy toch to it. Interesting beer.
