Imperial DunkelWit

Pours dark brown color with tan head. Aromas of orange peel, corriander and wheat. Sweet and boozy with corriander and some medicinal flavors. Medium to full body with soft carbonation and a syrupy mouthfeel.

Pours deep mahogany into a weiss glass. Off-white head quickly recedes to hug rim. Sweet corriander and clove aromas. Full and sweet with upfront raisins and dates turning dry and slightly hot in the lasting apple spice finish.

Bottle at Pizzeria Paradiso, recommendation of RJ - thank you sir! Dark ruby brown color, small tan head. Aroma of cardamon and caramel, lots of mixed aromas. Taste is a bit odd - part bitter, part sour, part sweet and malty. Not balanced, but interesting nonetheless. Worth a try.

Dark brown with a small off-white head. Perfumed coriander aroma with a bit of caramel. Dry and rich caramel malty flavour with a touch of licorice., But the coriander is overwhelming and that ruins it a bit.

Bottle @ Odense Tasting, April 2010. Pours unclear dark ruby brown with a small creamy beige head and lacings. Nose and taste is vague roast, caramel, wheat, toffee, perfume, herbs, orange fruit and coriander. Lots of hot alcohol. Medium bodied

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. This is an EXTREME beer as far as spices are concerned. Pours with a brown body and an off-white head. Aroma of parsley, perfume, jasmine and potpourri. Taste is dryer sheets (squared), potpourri and SPICE!!!! Over overpoweringly so. That said, I didn’t notice the alcohol.

Bottle 500ml. @ home.Unclear medium to dark red brown color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, roasted, caramel, moderate to heavy hoppy, citrus - orange, coriander, licorice, moderate yeasty. Flavor is light heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration, licorice, spicy, hoppy, caramel, star anis. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. Funny beer but not balanced IMO !

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear reddish brown. Head is off-white but dissipates in no time. Aroma has loads of coriander and alcohol - smells like a cheap cologne. Body is only medium, has a little dried fruit, but coriander and lavender dominates on an amazingly boozy background. This really could be mistaken for a cheap perfume, one that wasn’t meant for consumption. 090210

No real head, possibly bottom of keg. Muddy opaque dark brown body. Floral yeasty aroma with coriander and alcohol notes. Maybe some roastiness? Dryish-sweet floral herbal taste with Belgian yeast profile and coriander notes, as well as hintes of spice, chocolate, and pepper. Warm (from the alcohol), smooth mouthfeel. Fullish body. Dry grassy spicy floral aftertaste lasts a long time. Excellent, and highly drinkable, despite fairly powerful flavour. (0.35l draft at Olympen, Oslo.)

On tap @ Patricks. Hazy, murky brown body with a thin beige head. Aroma is citric fruity, sweet malt and some undefined spices. Flavor is sweet malt, citric fruity like orange and apricot, spicy and rather alcoholic. My fellows where convinced about the coriander, and I agree there are some of that here, but I think there is some other undefined spices dominating here. I might be fooled by all these unusual flavors, but that’s just the way it is. The first sips where quite nice and refreshing, then just a bunch of flavors where bombing my palates and making a mess out of everything. It’s an interesting beer and I might try it again, but it confuses me and I don’t find it very balanced. The low carbonation is not exactly giving this brew the refreshing this might needs. This is not an extreme beer, its just to undefined for me.

Re-ratet from bottle in December 2010. Clear, deep amber body with a small but nice and dense off-white head. Aroma is very fruity like lemongrass. Flavor is fruity, lemongrass, balanced sweet and bitter. Much more balanced than in 2009.
