Bottle. Thx Storm and papsoe. I wasnβt very surprised to find it poured a dark body, it was hazy, reddish brown in color, and the head was medium sized and tan. Sweetish, roasted, chocolatey aroma with coffee and a hint of alcohol. The flavor has the same lovely start, but soon a rather un-Belgian bitterness appeares. Itβs a quite unusual, but sure nice, blending fine with the other flavors. It finished with a long roasted flavor with room for the bitterness too. As usual, a lovely beer from Jacob & Co. (071228)

500 ml bottle. Hazy reddish brown body with a huge beige head. Aroma is sweet malt, candy sugar and spices like cloves, ginger and anise. Some alcohol as well. Flavor is much the same as expected from aroma, sweet malty and warming alcohol. Very nice indeed.

Bottled (thanks Papsoe!). Deep brown colour with big longlasting beigeish brown head. Aroma is quite spicy, yeasty as well as caramel malty. Flavour is caramel malts, some spices, old cold coffeeish notes and some yeast. Once it gets warmer it does hide the alcohol a bit better than when having it cold.

Bottle (2007) courtesy of Papsoe (thanks), shared with ozujsko. Nice, shiny label. How Christmasey. Opened with a very loud pop, poured a nice dark dark blackish red with a huge light tan head. The nose was pleasant indeed, caramel (prsne karamele), oranges, spicy dustiness and some toffee. The taste was a surprise, maltiness with notes of bubblegum of all things (weak though) fighting with an earthy, coffeeish roasty/quite smokey woody (tannine) taste. A hint of oranges. Smooth mouthfeel but not completely thrilling. Very light hops, but I didnβt expect more from the style. Not all that assertive, the aftertaste feels a bit... flat (canβt express myself better). A great beer overall and possibly until that moment the best Danish beer Iβve ever had... and then I look at the rating and think whether me and ozujsko got an insanely good bottle or something. Way underrated in my opinion.

Bottled (batch #49, BBE 2012)
Dark brown color, not much head (some off-white foam only). Ginger and roasted notes in the nose. Medium to full bodied. Ginger-caramelly flavor, some coffeish notes too. Interesting Christmas beer, but not too enjoyable to fell in love at Christmas table with this one.

Very dark color; creamy head. Aroma of caramel and spices (cinnamon overall). Medium body, caramel flavor, strong; light sweetness and some spices, unfortunately also some vegetables touch and a bit metallic at the end. Controversial.

Dark brown color. The aroma, with the caramel, is a bit herbal. Medium body; malt and caramel flavor. Too simple.
