26/XII/23 - 33cl bottle from a trade, shared @ home, BB: 10/VII/25, L2305G042PN (2023-1194) Thanks to Renno for the trade!

Clear red brown beer, small creamy beige head, a little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: lots of liquorice star anise, more black liquorice, some caramel malts, aniseed, cloves. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: a little bitter up front, pretty dry, some caramel, very spicy, more aniseed, other spices. Aftertaste: very spicy, cloves, aniseed, bitter finish. Not a big fan. Wouldn’t mind having had at least some sweetness in the beer, I mean, if you want to make a cookie flavoured beer.

Flesje gedeeld door Tomhendriksen. Bleekgeel troebel bier met weinig wit schuim dat als een film blijft liggen. Aroma is citrus-achtig (ananas) en hop. De smaak is vol, licht sprankelend en citrus-achtig. Smaak ebt snel weg.

0.33 l bottle from 'HEMA' (Den Bosch), best before July 2025. Almost clear, deep ruby with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish-malty, gently spicy aroma of caramel, gingerbread and nuts. Fairly sweet, malty, moderately bitter, quite spicy taste of caramel, gingerbread, nuts and some chocolate, followed by a short, moderately bitter finish. Medium to full body, smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Interesting beer, definitely well-brewed, quite outspoken 'pepernoten' flavours. Quite tasty actually, but surely not to everyone's liking.

Bottle. Clear brown. Cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, caramel, alcohol, dry wood. Medium sweet and bitter. Slick body. Not really pepernoten, more cardamom. Not amazing.

Fles gekregen van de Sint in mijn schoen. Het is een donkerbruin bier met mooie stevig beige schuim. Het heeft een aroma van kruiden, pepernoten en een hint drop. De smaak is vol, kruidig, peternoten en iets van rozijnen in de afdronk.

Donkerbruin bier met mooie stevige schuimkraag. Smaak is bitterzoet en kruidig met overduidelijk pepernotenkruiden en een heel licht fruitig zuurtje in de afdronk. Ondanks de wat aparte combinatie vind ik dit bier best wel geslaagd. Heb in het verleden veel minder geslaagde combinaties gehad.
