330ml bottle. Mohagany brown pour with reddish highlights. Small creamy tan head. Earthy, sweet, dark dried fruit nose. Sweet, toasted malt flavor upfront. Notes of Belgian yeast, Candi sugar, dark, dried fruits, Kirschwasser, toffee and perhaps orange peel. Hard to distinguish the individual spices. I detect a hint of allspice and clove, but not Thyme as indicated in the beer description. Alcohol becomes more noticeable as brew warms. Very enjoyable.

Smell-weak, malt-ish, hard to tell. Foam-thin, Belgian yeast, weak caramel, weak sweetness. Head is medium-sized, medium-dark brown color. Goes away fast. Appearance- beer-specific bottle cap? the label is somewhat nice also. I will assume so, so rounding up to max score. Clear, dark ruby color, no carbonatiion. From- snifter Price- 2,49 euros for 330ml Taste- thin, malty, Belgian yeast, caramel, some sweetness. Generally sweet, malty and Belgian-y beer. Very drinkable. alcohol semi-well hidden also.

Bottle from Livonia Liquor. Pours a deep brown with a finger of beige head that dissipates. Anise, clove, pear and plum aromas on the nose. Crisp and clean with more snappy pear, mineral, anise and clove flavors that linger. ABV hidden well. Has a bit of flaming banana with molasses going on. Sweet, but not overly cloying. Good crisp finish.

Flavour is malty notes of bread, kandi sugar, and toffee, as well as heather, earthy spices and herbal notes. Very mellow and thoroughly enjoyable.
