Great chunky amber coloured body with a dense copper and bronze glow and a thin, fast-dying white head. Aroma of alcohol, metal, malt, caramel, toffee and yes, a touch of honey. Medium-bodied; Sweet flavour of honey and caramel followed soon afterwards by a lot of nuts, alcohol, rum and a touch of oak. Aftertaste is sweet and dry with a lot of alcohol notes. Overall, a nice beer with a good complex characteristic, full of flavour and style. Great to sample, for sure! I sampled this 50 cL, completely unlabeled (aside from a tag around the neck of the bottle) with a gold foil cap/top purchased from A Tutta Birra in Milan, Italy on 12-November-2009 for €6.50 sampled at home in Washington on 21-February-2011 after spending part of the day at Eataly in New York.

Bottled. An amber beer with a bit of sediment under a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of alcohol, peaches, citrusy hops, and some spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, caramel, straw, alcohol, and honey, leading to a dry spicy finish.

Bottle, 8.0% as Amel. Mild aroma, perhaps there is a little brett. Cloudy dark orange colour. The flavour is OK sweet and malty, has a little mild caramel. Good maltiness in the flavour, nice in combination with a dusty flavour and mouthfeel.
