Bottle (thanx to Bierkoning): Deep golden coloured, mid-sized, lacing off-white head; aromatic, spicy hoppy nose like fresh hay (+ other spices), sweet malt too; slightly sweetish flavour, medium bodied; lingering spicy, hoppy and caramelly finish. A goodie........

Bottle. Quite nice hop aroma, some spices and aniseed. Clear, dark golden colour, small white head. The flavour is slightly sweet and yeasty. Good pepperiness and and some spices in the aftertaste. There seems to be a slight, underlying vegetable flavour.

(bottle, traded with bierkoning – thanks !) Clear and deep golden colour with a small, but slowly lacing foamy white head. Slightly sweet malty aroma with a distinctive spicy note of anise and traces of hops in the background. Sweetbitter flavour, medium body, crispy carbonation. Malty and spicy taste with a shy fruitiness; medium dry, light-bitter hoppy finish with loads of anise and also coriander, especially after a little burp. Slightly alcoholic and way to spicy in the finish for my liking. Not bad, but it reminds me more of Christmas than Spring.
