The aroma is very yeasty with strong notes of corriander and some notes of hops and grass. The beer is very lively when poured, so the head is huge white and lasting. The color is orange. The flavor is dominated by corriander from beginning to end, the sweetness is very discrete and combined with other spices. The end is very dry, both from hops and corriander. an OK beer - without being something special - a little too much corriander for my taste.

The aroma is very lomony with notes of spices. The color is an unclear orange and it has next to no head. The flavor is dominated by cloves with a sweet start, a watery middle, and a dry bitter end. I don't know why, but this is not the best wit I've had.

Very sweet malty aroma with notes of bitter chocolate and caramel - almost as if it is a sweet stout. The color is deep red or brown and it has a beutiful though collapsing light brown head. The flavor is sweet and sour on a malty background with notes of roasted malt, yeast, licorice, and chocolate. It ends on a malty dryness combined with a sourness. It has a good palate. This beer reminds me more of a stout than a Belgian ale. But anyways a good beer.

Amber ale, organic. The aroma isn't very strong, but it smells the cartonboard (?). It lacks of malt flavours. The palate is the only partially positive characteristics.
