Prettily designed flip-top bottle (with many, many thanks to MoritzF !) : Amber coloured, firm creamy off-white head; cinnamon, liquorice in the sweet-fruity nose with hoppy edges - almost a perfest english aroma...; strong bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied; lingering bitter-sweet and fruity (a bit like cough syrup) finish. A great winter-warmer......und lecker, aber kein Dröppke !

Pour is a very dark brown with a large tan head. Aroma is strong malts with a slight hop presence. Flavor is strong dose of malts with some biterness. Wow malts are out the wahoo on this brew. Some dark fruit is in there but nothing to get this one a better review. Still this is tasty and right in my range of how much i want to spend on a brew.

Swing-top bottle that gives a shot and smoke when opened. Light yellow, creamy head over an orange coloured head. Plain hoppy to the nose. Has got some sweet caramel quality and a touch of lightly honeyed malt. Dry finish with a bitter touch at the end (Sampled at The St Albans Beer Festival, 28.09.2006).

Murky brown body, thick cream head. Complex, inviting aroma of toast, caramels, breads, and spice, even hints of raisin. Strongly toasty body with leafy hops (tea leaves) and dark fruits (prune), light sweetness, and alcohol. Complex but the individual elements make a subtle presence. Very nice.

Builds a massive ultra-stable golden brown head on top of a lively carbonated cloudy golden golden brown hue. Sweet wild honey aroma, a touch of belgian fruityness there. Fruity orangepeel and berry flavoring, heather, fitting bitter edges, dry herbal finish. Sparkling dry mouthfeel. Slowly receding minerally dryness. World class - thanks a lot pivnizub!
