Bottled, alc. 9.0 %, vintage 2007 (BB 09/2012)
Ruby/cherry red, hazy, steady creamy beige head. Chocolaty, a bit yeasty nose, some spices. Quite full bodied, yeasty, Christmasy spices: cinnamon, clove. Alcohol and chocolate are present, maybe even a bit too alcoholic, it ruins many other nuances in the beer, propably improves after ageing. Ok Christmas dessert beer, perhaps a bit too much yeastyness.

Bottled (thanks omhper!, 9.0%). Deep rubyish amber colour with mediumsized creamy beige head. Aroma is raisins, alcohol, sweet malts some hints of fudge and caramel. Flavour licorice, hoppy bitterness turning into very sweet caramel/fudge along with spices and some yeast. Quite nice balance.

Bottled. Very black, beige head. Aroma of chocolate sauce and molasses. Sweet and medium bodied with fairly raw and unrefines malt profile. Balanced amounts of chili contributes to a warm flavour, but syrup and molasses makes it sticky. Finishes lightly salty. One of the few beers where chili actually is a positive feature, but just like other bigger beers from Brøckhouse I find it raw and rough.

Bottle. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are malt and hops. Actually disappoingly little hops. Expected more cascade here. Too mild.
