Bottle. Tasted together with 2004-version. 2005 was much better. Round sweet and with good palate. Wonderfull aroma and taste. 2004 version much more watery.

75cl bottle from Auchan. Amber beer with lasting white head. Pretty standard amber beer to be honest. Some candy sugar and hop on aroma. Some drying spicy hop on the end and candy sugar. Bit indistinguished

On tap at Fynske Øldage, Odense, Denmark. Malty and sweet aroma. Clear, amber beer with an off-white head and low carbonation. Citric and sweet flavor. Miss the Christmas-feeling in this one, but it is not bad at all. (051029)

(Bottle 75 cl) Pretty, filtered amber with a fine yet discreet head.. Slightly sweet to begin with but well balanced off by the hops. Not very fullbodied in spite of the alcohol, but a quite harmonic beer. 100404

(750 ml corked bottle, champagne style. Bought in Denmark.). A Christmas beer in August, why not? Amber colour, large fizzy head that doesn’t last very long. Pleasant and complex aroma of oak, caramel, dried fruits and spices. I find the flavour less complex, maybe because of the beer’s fizzyness. Still it is reasonably malty and easily drinkable, fairly sweet. Aftertaste is OK but not impressive.

Amber with a fizzy, quickly disappearing head. Malt and fruit aroma, some lemon. Sweet without much aftertaste. Nice, but nothing special, especially if compared to other dubbels.

The aroma is of cloves - very christmas like. The color is amber and it has a fine but disappearing head. The flavor is sweet and malty with notes of fruits primarily oranges and mango together with notes of cloves and caramel. The end is rather dry. A very complex flavor.
