I was rating this at Lokaal when owner/brewer Rob came in and looked over my shoulder. Interesting to hear him tell the story about this beer. Bottle. Dark ruby maroon. Herbal aroma. Taste is slightly boozy burnt caramel, licorice, light cocoa. Unique

Bottle [thanks to RW80] @ home shared with a friend. Clear red brown color, huge fizzy off-white head. Smell and taste lightly malts, hops, floral hops, fortunately I don’t taste any peppers. Also no anise btw, at least nt in the flavor. Decent body and carbonation. Decent beer.
