Brune typée, titrant 6,7% d’alcool et commercialisée uniquement pour les fêtes de fin d’année, cette spécialité se doit d’être dégustée avec parcimonie. A base de malt d’orge caramélisé, cette bière de type « Doppelbock » est de couleur rousse foncée. Puissante et douce à la fois, elle est un festin pour le palais.

Beautiful deep amber-red; yellowish, irregular head. Caramel, orange, and a fresh herbal aroma (parsley?); sweet spices as cinnamon and cloves. Orange cake - very appetising nose. Sweet-bitter taste, well balanced, quite dry-spicey. "Sweet" spices give often a dry-bitter taste, mustard or horseradish powder flavour without the sharpness. Again a bit clovey, caramel flavour. Finishes orangey. Dry-out effect! Reasonably well-bodied, but not heavy. This is a nice one! Surprising for this quiet brewery, and all the more laudable. I’d say Danke in Letzebürgisch would I know how, Marcus.

Bottled. Copper colour. Sweet, orangey and almondy. Firmly malty with some caramel, grass, hops and lots of orange juice. Good!

Amber color. Caramel and caramel, some malt and high ending bitterness, quite un-interesting.

A hazy amber beer with a small head. The aroma is maily sweet, but also with notes of alcohol. The flavor is sweet malty with main notes of caramel.
