Taster from bottle. Glunz Beer Expo, April ’10. I will finish my notes from this year-ago event today! Healthy red to brown in color. Some thin, bubbly foam coming out of the bottle. Pretty sweet but with some caramel or even Belgian candi notes, but not too sugary. Not much hop balance, but a nice malty, again still sweet lager. Very tasty, and at the end of a long afternoon of sampling, I still like this.

22 oz. bottle, pours murky reddish brown with a small head. Fruity nose, with toffee and alcohol. Flavour of complex fruits, well-balanced sweetness vs. bitterness, caramel and a slight alcohol finish. Very well-done.

Bottle. Pours with a hazed bronze-deep orange body and a lasting off-white head. Aromas of raisins, caramel, alcohol, tons of malt, metal, rum cake, an orange/curacao reduction. Flavors of sweet and bitter, burnt flan, orange peel, toffee, raw wheat, really bitter. Some over baked and glazed desserts. Lively bubbles. Decently dry, but with lingering burnt caramel flavors.

Pours light mahogany into a Sam glass. Off-white conglomerate head recedes at a medium pace leaving spotted spiders. Caramel, bread, toast and nut aromas. Sweet caramel and rum soaked pumpernickel from front to back. Sweet roasted nut aftertaste.

Sampled on draft at 3 Rivers 6 Pack Eatery this beer poured a dark orange-brown color with a small beige head. The aroma was dryish and malty with notes of caramel and fruity/floral hops. The flavor was dryish with notes of rough fruity hops, faint floral and spicy hops and notes of fig, caramel orange and yeast. The finish was long, dry and floral. Fairly full bodied. Nice.

Bottle 65 cl. Courtesy of TheCheeseMan. Pours a clear amber with an off-white head. Very malty and caramellish nose with a metallic whiff. Rather solid body, with a massive malt base, some caramel. The finish is rather bitter and alcoholic - the bottom fermenting yeast cannot really bear the alcohol. 270310
