Bottle pours a clear deep redish brown. Small light tan head and thick coating of lacing. Mlaty and sweet aroma. A bit of earth wood and brown sugar. Flavor is grassy and rather bitter. Woody again and the malts while a bit dark are not very sweet. Lanty of bittering for the style and more than I expected. Rather light palate and lively carbonation. Not a bit fan.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Clear, dark, orangey brown with an off-white head. Roasted malt aroma with some vanilla. Medium-bodied, very soft mouthfeel and some spicy, lightly tobaccoish herbal accents. Almost no bitterness in the finish which is dry though. Nice but unspectacular. 180907

Brown color. Caramel aroma, light herbs. Thin body, caramel flavor, some residual sugars, light chocolate malt, but a rather unpleasant, even if light, herbal touch. Not my kind.

Fiery orange-red body, thick off-white head, leaves nice lacing. Aroma of grapefruity and piney hops residues and toast. Flavor is a swirl of floral and citrusy hops, with a bitter, earthy finish. Creamy, soft.

Tasted from bottle at Nat. Homebrew Conference 06/23/06. Clear copper color with off white head. The aroma was mostly all hops with a citrus orange and spicy hops. Very nice and pungent. I taste orange-ish hop flavor along with what seems like Centennial hop bitterness. Excellent hoppy beer.

Bottle. Crisp, clean, beer. Dark redish color. Nectar flavor, not very distinct, but frankly was very smooth and has a great finish.
