(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of Rastacouere. Hazy, reddish amber golden with a dense, beige head. Very spicy aroma - anise I believe. Fairly full-bodied with lots of roasted malt, sweetish licorice notes and other spices - camomile? Very subdued bitterness. Pleasant. 090507

Bottle: Poured a deep burgundy brown color ale with a big foamy head with great retention and lacing. Aroma of anis is totally dominating but still well back by some strong malt. Taste is dominating by anis with some candi sugar. I thought the anis was a bit overwhelming and could have been more balance. Body was above average and alcohol was well hidden. Nicely done overall but a better calibration of spices would bring this to world class level.

A brown ale with nice mahogany hues and an extra thick light moka head. In aroma, wonderful candy sugar mix in with orange pulp with notes of nutmeg. In mouth, a ricjh alcohol gives way to a sweet candy malt, with hints of choclate, nutmeg, and oranges. Slightly nutty notes. An excellent offering from Fred. Bottle bought at Joanette, May 2006.
