330ml bottle, 8.2% abv, to glass. Bought at The Bottle Shop in Brugge more than a year ago. Creamy, lightly brown head. Opaque dark brown body. Bready malts and dried fruits to the nose. Taste of dark malts successfully mixed with dark plums and added by a spicy hint and with a cellar-like touch to it. Semi-tart, fruity ending. Soft in the mouth. Has got many qualities (Tromsø, 14.07.2012).

75cl bottle @Viisi Penniä, Helsinki. Poured dark amber with a decent foamy head. Aroma is fresh, apple cider with some light spiciness. Flavor is roasted malt, apples and chocolate, especially in the finish. Quite light body despite the ABV. High carbonation. Quite easy to drink, decent.
