Bottle Clear, amber body. Off-white, fizzy head, whicj diminishes mostly. Aroma of hops, coriander, ... Moderately bitter, lightly sweet initial flavour. Moderately bitter, moderately sweet finish. A quite unusual finish, which is spicy in a very particular kind of way.

Fully hazy dark-amber with olive shine; huge pink-yellow head, very dense leaving some lace. Faint roasted coffee nose, vegetable background. Burnt-caramel coffee taste with an obvious spicey finish. After some time, there’s a marked sojasauce/sesame oil flavour. Bit burning MF, spice-enhanced it would seem; well bodied with mild alcoholburn. Original & quaint. The proof would be in the ageing. Somehow this keeps reminding me the Steedje beers. And those where dangerous to keep - mostly. Sounds, sorry, tastes familiar...
