From a 0.75 litre flip-top bottle on 15th Dec 2012, at the Essen Christmas Beer Festival. Poured a deep reddy copper colour, medium head of cream coloured foam. Strange aroma, a mix of summer floral notes and freshly baked white bread. The taste was also a mixed bag of flavours all jumbled up: Raspberry jam rolly-polly without custard (thank goodness) with coriander and un-salted nuts. The alcohol is just about noticeable through the flavours but the body depth is about right. A different and interesting beer: would have liked another, but there were so many to try I had to move on!

3/II/13 - 75cl bottle from De Hopduvel @ my uncle's place - BB: n/a - 2012 vintage (2013-134)
Clear red brown beer, big creamy beige head, very stable, non adhesive. Aroma: lots of caramel, fudge, sugary, some grassy hops, sourish touch. MF: lots of carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty sourish start, caramel, red berries, some overripe fruits, chocolate, bitter touch, hoppy. Aftertaste: little bitter, overripe fruits, chocolate, mocha, some coffee even. Decent beer, but a bit unbalanced. Maybe it needs more time in the bottle...

Clear brown. Aroma and taste of caramel and malts. I think the spice was quite mild so the balance was good. Easy to drink with a slight sweetness in the finish.

Very good light-beige head, rather stable over fully opaque dark brown beer. Cookies, bready, rather sweet nose with melanoidins and dark malts in evidence. Pastry dough with hazelnuts, finely spiced with - indeed - coriander. Sweetish-bready to again pastry-like flavours; gingerbread, with a bitterish to bitter finish (~walnutpeel); Amaretto and bitter oranges. Well bodied, slick, some alcoholwarming, well-carbonated. Unfortunately, bitter- and sweetcomponents are pulling in opposite directions, rather than blending, hence a bit unbalanced. Still, the basic flavourprofile seems a sound idea.
