Dark red-brown colour. A firm creamy and cream-coloured head. The smell of roasted malt, caramel and the sweet fruitiness of the alcohol give this beer the perfect aroma. Flavour: Caramel, sweet fruitiness and a pleasant bitterness are the predominant flavours. The aftertaste reveals a pinch of toffee and date.

My favorite beer from this brewer to date. Sampled from an 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark brown color with a large foamy beige head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was tart and sour raisin, fig, cherry, molasses, anise and bread. The flavor was sour caramel, nut, bread, light tart cherries, fig, port wine and vanilla cream. The finish was long with caramel, fig and molasses lingering. Moderately full bodied and creamy. Excellent.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm, 11 July 2011) Dark reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of caramel, dried fruit, raisins and brown sugar. Malty taste with caramel, dried fruit, prunes, dark bread and a spicy finish. More than medium body, fairly sweet. Quite nice.

Big brown head. Deep dark red brown body. Papery licorice aroma with chocolatey notes. Dry-sweet papery licorice taste with syrupy herbal notes. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Mid-bodied. Sweetish earthy musty chocolatey aftertaste with herbal notes. Nice, mild, drinkable. Faintly peppery. (0.33l bottle at Delirium Cafe, Brussels.)

bottle from Village de la Bière Strasbourg France. Hazy brown colour, large off-white head. Malty-fruity nose. Rather thin malty base with some spices and a shy hoppy touch. Quite thin for the strength.
