50 cL bottle. Pours hazy brown with a chalk white head. Light hoppy aroma with a vague spice note. Flavour is quite spiced and with a hops note swept through the palate. Mild liqourice note mixed with dense caramel malt flavour and a spiced bitterness. Light liqourice into the far finish.

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin orange head. The aroma is sweet with a strong floral hop note, with a light note of alcohol in the background. The flavor is sweet malty combined with a dusty hop note and spicy notes of especially coriander, leading to a dry spicy end. The alcohol gives it a nice powerful body.

(Bottle 50 cl) Courtesy of Ungstrup. Hazy golden with an off-white head. Aroma of almonds and marzipan - and alcohol. Quite full-bodied with a shipload of sweetish malt, fruit and marzipan. Potent, warming, alcoholic finish. 250407
