Bottle at Kolding Ølmesse. Pours a slightly murky brown body with a nice beige head. Caramel, fruityness and a pleasant hoppyness in the aroma. Caramel, sweetness, a little roasted maltyness and a nice bitterness in the flavor, finishing caramel-sweet and slightly alcoholic. Full, effervescent, sweetish and warming mouthfeel. Sure a beer one could drink more often. Rating: 6-4-7-4-14-3.5. 080229
Bottle, as Briels Geuzenbier. Unclear, brown body with a small, off-white head. Ginger, caramel, heather, cardamom and alcohol on the nose. It’s warming on the palate, full-bodied and sort of sticky. Caramel, roasted malts, nuts and spices in the flavor. Some alcohol flavor too, especially in the rather sweet finish. There’s also a touch of licorice. A quite nice one, I like that the spicyness isn’t dominating. 110621

Bottle at Kolding Ølmesse. Clear, slightly reddish orange colored body with a white head. Raspberries and apples in the aroma and flavor. Quite sweet in the mouth, almost sticky. Medium fullness and nice carbonation level. Refreshing and easy to drink, but give me a regular witbier instead of this one. (080229)

30 cL bottle. Pours golden deep orange to amber, clear with a dense off-white head. Spiced aroma, light presence of a solid caramel and chocolate malt profile beneath. Flavour is spiced, shows a medium sweet chocolate malt base. Lingering spiced and slight chemical like note into the finish. Gets a slight bit to dominant on the spice note.

30 cl bottle. Pours unclear brown with a fine creamy head & lacings. Aroma is very malty & spicy - coriander & caramel dominates the aroma. Again very aggressive herbal/coriander surrounds the tastebuds inclding liquorice.. Body is full & creamy. A bit of warmth & sweetness. Very well balanced & well made!
