Een rijk en verwarmend bier voor de donkere dagen. Zoetige mout en kandij suiker met tonen van karamel en zoethout. Vrij lange, kruidige afdronk.

Bottle at home. Aroma of sweet malt, bread, spices, caramel, sugary notes, raisins. Flavour is medium to heavy sweet. Body is medium. Lots of spices and malty sweetness. Decent, but not my kind of beer.

Аромат на удивление немного пряный, также чувствуется темные фрукты. На внешность этот экземпляр весьма приятен и благороден, плюс хорошая и постоянная пенка. Вкус очень мягкий немного пряный, также слегка чувствуются фрукты и карамель. Послевкусие также очень мягкое и плавное, немного греет горло. В целом абсолютно классический и хороший эль.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark purple, with a nice fluffy head of cream foam, mid grained. Aroma is toasty, licorice. Body is partially dense, with average carbonation. Taste is medium-high sweet, especially persisting in the final.

Color marrón oscuro, roja al trasluz, espuma beige de buena consistencia. Aroma a fruta pasificada y madura, ciruelas, pan de higo, dátiles, uvas pasas, frutos secos, crema batida, malta tostada, caramelo, especias...En boca es maltosa, mayormente dulce, cálida, muy especiada, notas de pan de centeno, fruta muy madura, pasas, algo de chocolate, nueces...Una opción aceptable de strong ale navideña

Boxing Day disappointment at the City Ground. Another blah performance from Spurs, vs park the bus Forest. At least the Belgian Xmas beers are good, and Chelski lost to Fulham.

Fles gedeeld door Bart en gedronken met familie.
Donkerbruin bier, heftig schuimend tijdens inschenken.
Aroma is karamel achtig.
Smaak is licht houtig en fruitig.
Nasmaak licht hoppig.

Sample from bottle at Remko's bierproefavond 20dec2024. Didn't take notes, preferred the nice company. Remember a darker brown color, winterbeer spicyness, caramel malt and some raisins. Ok Christmas time beer.
