500ml bottle. Clear, ruby red glowing, mahagony colour with huge, thick, creamy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, beige head. Dry hoppy, fruity aroma, notes of red berries, lingonberry, cranberry. Taste is minimally sweet fruity, hints of red berries and their parings, bitter hoppy overtones, nuttily malt basis.

50 cl - thanks to Sean. Toll malziger Geruch. Der Antrunk ist Kohlensäurehaltig, schön schokoladig. Der Hauptteil ist toll malzig-schokoladig, schön vollmundig, leicht cremig. Der Nachgeschmack ist lang anhaltend, toll schokoladig-weich, nette Röstmalzaromen mit ganz leichter Säure. --> Tolles Bier! 13/12/14/14

Bottled (from AbM). Hazy ambery brown colour with a big fluffy head, that settles into a small creamy one. Aroma is wood, fruity, floral, mild chocolate and some slight toffee. Flavour is wooden, mild floral and chocolaty notes as well as some mild resiny and toffeeish notes. Nice bitter floral finish.

Bottled, thanks Boudicca! Cloudy dark brown, rich creamy head. Floral nose with some milk chocolate. Mid dry with medium body and soft mouthfeel. Some floral notes, a bit of chocolate ang grain. Mostly velvetty and harmonious. Mid bitter finish with some salt. Beautifully relaxed and drinkable.
