Amber beer slightly sparkling. Nice character. Soft flavor. Strong aroma of yeast and malt.

Flaska från Hopt som stått något år. Disig honungsfärgad vätska med högt vitt skum. Söt och ester oj gr fruktig doft. Välutvecklad smak, torkad frukt, kanderade äpplen, marsipan, honung, jäst, lätt kryddig beska. En trevlig belgisk ljus strong ale. Gott

Pour is a cloudy tan with a large white head. Aroma is sweet candi sugar and a mix of spice I can't quite put my finger on. Flavor is more of the spice with some munich malt chewiness and this somehow starts off really sweet but finishes super dry. Belgian beers are something I love but this one was kind of all over the place. A bit too sweet and the spices are odd. Good for a try but nothing really special at the same time.

750ml bottles scooped up from Exton Beverage for 6 dollars or so. Still a year from the best by, but perhaps a little devolved. Dry, fluffy of the palate. Really soft Belgian effervescence goes a long way. Medium dark malt tones, elegant red fruit yeast tone. Good stuff.

Bottle online from Beerhouseshop.be. Pours a hazy amber colour with a large thick foamy off-white head. Aromas of bananas, cloves, bread, spice and a tiny hint of bubblegum. Taste is the same notes again. Thinnish body, average carbonation and slightly oily mouthfeel. Doesn't seem like a very Christmasy beer. Not bad but a bit watery. Edit: The beer got better the more i drank.
