Bottle, 75cl, at RBNAG-11. It pours an orangey, reddish, unclear body with a small, off-white to beige head. Some roasted notes in the aroma, caramel and dried fruits dominating. Pleasant, but not as complex as I could wish for. Caramel maltyness, hints of honey and with some dried fruits in the flavor. Full-bodied, slightly warming and with pleasant carbonation. Lasting finish with dried fruits and maltyness. A rather lovely one, unusual, but lovely. 111015

0.75l bottle @ RBNAG11. Pours a heavy unfiltered clouded orange-copper body packed with sediments and a small bubbly white head. The aroma is not extreme, but nice. Some leafy tones, light hoppy, sweetish aroma with a light fruity hint. Strawberries and pears. Sticky aftertaste. Good beer!

Bottled@GBBF2008 (thanks for the sip to the almighty Cad!). Slightly hazy ambery golden colour with a small off-white head. Aroma is tart fruits, some sour wood, mild earth and some alcohol and mild acidic notes. Flavour is the same in a quite nice balance. Alcohol gives a quite nice sweet burn in the finish.

24th December 2008. Cloudy red brown beer. Dry and crisp palate. Malty with a brandyish feel. Slighty bitter and spicy finish. A light touch of fruit well buried. Quite drinkable and with a warming finish from the alcohol.
