Bottle shared at a tasting at troubles’s place. Hazy amber. Aroma with lots of spiciness (coriander, pepper), flowers, some yuzu, a bit of earth. Flavor is mildly sweetish with some malt, spiciness, yuzu, flowers, and a bitterish finish. Medium-bodied. Decent.

Powerful aroma as soon as the bottle is opened. Sweet fruits, coriander, lemony, malt. Flavor is full of spice. Lots of the coriander and pepper. Sweet and perfume in the background. Very chalky dry mouth. Has a lot of potential but fails in the follow through.

On tap at The Roundhouse Taproom, Hong Kong. Dark amber with a small head. Mostly soap, ginger and malt in this one. Not my kind of beer.

Kagua Rouge on tap at Craft Beer Holiday. It pours a very deep reddish brown with a foamy beige head. Not as red as I expected but still appetizing enough. The aroma is huge lemon zest, pepper & coriander, very much a spiced belgian ale. The taste is malty sweet with a spiced caramel bun kind of flavor. Something you’d expect to find at a Christmas dinner. The candied orange, malt & spice flavor is tasty. I like it.

330 ml. bottle sampled @ 20ste Zomerbierfestival. Made with sansho pepper apparently which I have never tried. Reddish wood amber, small tanned head. Nose is light metal, very sweet red fruity, jam & syrup with light licorice-like touch, odd & interesting. Taste is akin to sweet & sugary red fruits, jam, candy, sugar mixed with some light herbal, licorice-like note, the pepper I assume, an odd but pleasant and interesting combo,… Jam-like body. Quite interesting & nice. Also very polarizing, some liked it & others didn’t.

Had this bottle maybe for a year, so it has aged a bit. Very fizzy, lot of foam. Colour is dirty reddish brown. Aroma is really up to your face, full of soft herbs, sweet sticky herb liquor. Taste is fizzy, some herbs, candy sugar. Aftertaste long, some hoppy spikes of bitterness, alcohol. Very Belgian. Good!

Sehr süßer Geruch, der im Antrunk nur bedingt erkennbar ist. Deutlich fruchtig mit leichter Süße, süffig, speziell mit seinen Gewürznoten. Süß herber Nachhall. 10/9/9/8/9/9
