Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is bready malt, mild caramel, spicy hops with a herbal touch, citrussy notes with bitter orange peel and curaçao. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and moderate to medium bitter. Body is medium. Enjoyable and interesting beer, has the colour and maltiness of a Vienna Lager with a pleasant spicy hoppy touch and some nice citrus peel.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Took forever to pour with its huge head. Aroma is malt, caramel toffee, quite herbal with a touch of liquorice root and mint. Flavour is medium sweet and bitter. Body is medium with too heavy carbonation. Quite flawed and mediocre homebrew level beer. Nope.
