A striking ruby hue and spicy floral nose punctuate the pleasant sweetness of this brew. Crystal malt coalesces with the earthy flavor of Willamette hops. A hauntingly beautiful combination.

Bottle, 12oz. An almost clear one, reddish dark golden in color and with a creamy, light beige head leaving lacings. The aroma ismalty with a faint sourish touch. Caramel and a generic fruityness too. Pale malts, caramel, something almost milky sour and a decent bitterness in the flavor. Medium body and pleasant carbonation. Pleasant bitterness in the else malty finish. A forgettable one. 131004

12oz bottle. Poured a relatively clear, ruby red color with a medium sized off-white head, lots of carbonation - like a soda. Aroma was light, sweet malts, notes of caramel, some orange zest. Flavor was caramel, toffee, some light earthy hops. Actually pretty tasty.

Bottle 35,5 cl. Pours amber with a slight haze and a small, dissipating beige head. Thick caramel aroma with a metallic whiff. Medium body, lowish carbonation, caramel dominates everything and then a little late bitterness. Somewhat oxidized and metallic. No aromatic qualities whatsoever. 290813

Bottle. Caramelly aroma. Cloudy dark red colour. Small tan head. The flavour is caramelly, papery and a little citric. Medium bitterness. Fruity citrus note, probably from the hops.
