Bottled. Clear ruby, everage head. Fantastic aroma of crystalized sugar, black cherries and roasty malt. Sweet with light, seemingly fragile maltiness. No hops detected, instead I find fruit esters and black currant. Short finish with unfortunate notes of saccharine.

Huge creamy light tan head; hazy dark red body. Sweet spicy peppery aroma. Sweet earthy taste of paradise seeds, yeast, and carbonation with peppery notes. Dry aftertaste. Nice, if not earth-shattering.

(500ml plastic bottle, presented by bierkoning) Hazy dark amber colour with a small creamy beige layer. Lightly sweet malty aroma with orange rind and a herbal hoppy and spicy note. Sweerbitter flavour, medium to light body, lively carbonation. Light sweet initial taste with dark malts, caramel and citrus fruits. Dry and moderately bitter herbal hoppy and coriander-spicy finish. Good, although it lacks a bit body.

Bottled (6.2%). Hazy brown colour, beige creamy head. Plummy and spicy aroma and flavour. Some sourness and raisins in it too. Aftertaste is hayish hoppy along with plummy sweetness.

Amber color. Quite strong hoppy aroma (a bit metallic). Average body, but a nice caramel-hop final.

A hazy red beer with an off-white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of coriander. The flavor is spicy with coriander standing out. A nice beer - but the body is thin.

Clear body, amber colour. Frothy, light brown head which is mostly diminishing and excellent lacing. Lightly malty (toffee) and anise aroma. Lightly acidic and lightly bitter initial flavour. Moderately bitter, ligthly acidic finish. Watery texture. Lively and dry mouthfeel. Light to medium bodied. A saison-like beer.

(draught, as befits this brewery) Dark amber, rim of foam. Brown candi-sugar, sweetish, but with a fresh herbal smell as well, however fainter as most years. Sweetish, caramel taste, with a refreshing quality as mineral water. Bitterish surrounding flavour. A bit thin mouthfeel, really. Aftertaste: where are the hops?? I remember this beer with a much more outspoken hopbite. Ann, Ann, lama sabbathani?
