Bottle: Poured a dark copper color aler with a small foamy head with limited retention. Aroma of caramelized malt with dry notes and some oxidation is also clearly noticeable. Taste is also a mix of oxidized notes with caramel malt notes and light soy sauce.Body is about average with good carbonation. Enjoyable even though the bottle is past its prime.

650ml bottle. Cloudy, chestnut colour with average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, dark beige head. Sweet-ish, malty aroma, notes of toffee, caramel, hints of milk chocolate, nougat and treacle. Taste is sweet-ish, minimally nuttily malty, notes of toffee, nougat, hints of caramel, milk chocolate, treacle, some bitter hop with zesty hints of mandarine as counterweight; widely hidden alcohol, a minimally warming touch in the finish, though. Oily-watery texture, smooth and soft palate.

Bottle. An unclear, glowing reddish dark amber colored beer topped by a dense, finger-thick light beige head. Rather sugary aroma with dried apricots, some alcohol, notes of resins and pine cones and a little caramel note. Dried fruits, caramel, resiny and piney hops and some caramel in the flavor. Full body and a pleasant carbonation level, a tad sweet on the palate. Lasting finish. Too sweet and a bit light perhaps, and lacking a bit on the complexity. 140816
