Bottle @ home shared with DutchDrebus. Slightly hazy yellow / orange color, lacing white head. Smell pepper and a lot of other spices or herbs, not nice. Taste ok, but also spices or herbs come through again. Not really good in my opinion.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. It pours an unclear, amber body and a dense, finger-thick off-white to beige head. Cardamom, dried fruits and caramel on the nose. Lightly roasted too. The flavor is sweet, yet it feels dry on the palate, full-bodied and a bit heavy on the carbonation. Cardamom, or maybe cinnamon, caramel and dried fruits too. Spiced, fruity and caramel-ish finish. A quite decent one. 110819

9/08/2011 33cl bottle @ Erwin's place - BB: 30/06/12 (2011-373) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the bottle!

Little cloudy orange beer, off-white creamy head, stable and adhesive, leaves a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: fruity, pears, hops, bit metallic, green banana peels. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: very malty, caramel, lots of spices, some banana, hops, bit fruity. Aftertaste: citrus, caramel, bit of smoke or wood. Waaaay better than the ZonderiX I once had.
