Bottle @ Ratman’s house. Thanks Armin! Pours a quite hazy, dark appearance with a small white head. Spicy yeasty, citrus peel, somewhat bready, zesty citrusy, anise aroma. Slightly sweet bready, chewy malty, tangerine citrusy, fairly spicy flavor.

Starker Gewürzantrunk, der unausgeglichen und recht süß daherkommt. Süß bleibend, disharmonisch, nicht sonderlich. Holzig, dann süße Gewürze, langer malzig angehauchter Holzabgang. 7/6/8/7/6/6

Tap at the Stags Head pours dark orange with nice sized and great aromas. Taste is rock candy, fruit, bread and toffee. Boozy finish but for me far too much anise flavor. I am quite sensitive to that flavor and can only handle so much.

Bottle. Pours orange. White head. Nose and taste of fresh coriander, honey, bready malts, orange peel and light star anise. The anise does a lot to add complexity and doesn’t overpower like many beers brewed with it. Long complex finish of varying degrees of coriander interwined with anise seed and orange peel. Medium body.

Hazy orange - amber beer. Soft and slightly syrupy palate. Sweet honey orange dominates, underpinned by even malt. Finishes with aniseed and a tiny bit of bitterness from the coriander. Can’t really taste the Star Anise. A very nice Grand Cru that slips down easy!

Bottle, 75cl corked. It pours a boring clear, golden body and white head. The aroma and flavor is on a completely different level though, with a nice aroma of grains, spices, some caramel and a peppery touch. Some alcohol and a faint hint of funk too. Sweet flavor, white sugar, with pale malts, some alcohol giving a good warming feeling, and a fint bitterness leading way to the finish. Full-bodied. A very nice beer, but a bit warmer than what suits it. Wouldn’t mind repeating it though. 090925
