25cl bottle from Vinmonopolet Storo (some years ago). Pours clear deep golden with a fairly modest, white head. Rather spicy aroma with notes of caramel, dried fruits, honey, alcohol and bitter herbs. Sweet and reminds me at first a bit of the Finish Marinella, the spices are quite dominating. Feels somewhat a bit unusual and I’m not too fan of it at first, but after some time in the glass and a bit more temperature it turns into a pleasant sipper. --- Beer merged from original tick of 1000 Days (#1000) on 31 Jul 2015 at 21:18 - Score: 6

250 ml. bottle @ home. Purchased @ De Hopduvel. Brew on 18.07.2013. Light hazy golden, very little in the way of head. Nose is sweet cloves, cough drops, very thick spices, caramel, kitchen spices, honey, ginger, lavender, thick malts,… More spices that I cannot name, lots & lots of them. Taste is thick honey caramel malts, sweet biscuit, lavender, thick cloves, cough drops, honey, sweet flowers, touch faint bitter spices amidst the heavy spice sweetness, thick sweet soap, sugar bread,… Thick malt, lower carbonation,… Would love to know the specific spices in this,… It is very heavy on spices, extremely so but fascinating & oddly pleasant at the same time. Interesting beer.

250mL bottle, pours a cloudy orange with a tiny head. Nose is very spicy and earthy, with lots of twigs, earthy notes, and a various mix of autumn spices that I can't really pick out. Flavour doesn't taste as spicy, and more Belgian yeast-heavy, with lots of floral notes, candied sugar and just a touch of the spice. Really well-made, exceeding my expectations (was expecting a spicy mess). Finished with a warming effect from the alcohol. Very enjoyable stuff.
