Hazy, dark brown. Aroma is floral and yeasty. A bit like some champagne. Flavour is tart, yeasty with some wood dryness. Strong alcohol finish.

75 cl. bottle sampled @ Kerstbierfestival Essen 2013. Reddish dark brown with a tanned head. Nose is candy sweet, caramel, toffee, fruity, faint coffee. Taste is toffee & distinct coca-cola, sweet herbs, toffee, touch iron, heavy malts, dried fruits. M/M body. Okay brew, the tasting notes on this one in the festival booklet are crazy. They talk about lactic notes, vinegar, mustard seed, pickles etc. Uhm, what? Their beer seems ridiculously fascinating but my sample had none of the stuff that they noted.

Orange golden colour, white head. Aroma of orange peel, light cherry and yeast. Quite sweet flavour, herbal, fruity touches. Quite fizzy. Fruity finish. Rather decent brew.

Bottle shared @ ZZT 8. Extreme gusher! Murky pale yellow color, huge foamy white head. Aroma is citrussy, yeasty and slightly herbs or spices. Tastes like a bad saison: citrussy, sharp quite harsh sourish, very yeasty. No, don’t like it.

Bottle shared @ ZZT 8. Murky dark orange color, full sized a bit fizzy beige head. Smell malts, quite fruity, lightly yeasty. Taste lightly malts, nicely fruity, slightly orangepeel, lightly dry. Fizzy carbonation, average to medium body. A bit less carbonation would make this beer much better imo.
