(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy amber with a small, creamy, off-white head. Soft caramel aroma with touches of orange. Medium-bodied with a very soft mouthfeel. Malty with accents of caramel and oranges. Discreet bitterness. Not your typical Christmas beer, but very delicate indeed. 120806

A dark brown beer with a red shine underneath a thin orange head. The totally dominated by juniper berries - I like that. The flavor is lightly sweet with a good note of juniper berries, as well as heather and wood, leading to a dry end.

330 ml bottle, bought at Mahlers Vinhandel, Frederikshavn, Denmark. Unfiltered. Nearly black colour, large and creamy tan head. Lovely aroma of juniper berries first and foremost, roast malts and dark chocolate in the background. Flavour of roast malts, coffee and dark chocolate, maybe some liquorice too, the juniper berries are around but are not dominant. Moderately sweet, some faint acidic notes in the finish. Fairly bitter aftertaste, both from the roastiness and the hops. An excellent stout in my book, with an unusual but successful addition of juniper berries.

Bottled. Amber, clear beer with a beige head, almost nitro-looking, but not that lasting. Nice, but weak aroma with caramel, malt and fruity hops. Flavor is very well balanced with malt and hops, maybe a bit on the sweet, caramelly side, but definately not unpleasant. Medium body and a finish with sweetness and a good, lasting but not overpowering piney bitterness. A pleasant brew from Grauballe. (060719)

Very dark brown colour. Aroma leads with roast and a natural, subtle fruitiness that can be interpreted in any number of different ways, all with chocolate riding shotgun. The body is a shade thin and the flavour a shade light but the balance between the roast, chocolate and juniper is pretty sound. Reminds me of the Juniper Dubbel I made once in terms of the integration of fruit and underlying brew. Just wish it was more assertive.
