Cloudy brown - red beer, good creamy head. Sweet malt nose. Soft smooth palate. Sweet caramel malt with some toffee. Figs and dates when the beer is cold. As it warms up there is honey, guava and traces of red wine and aniseed. Smooth creamy finish. Tiny bit of bitterness in the aftertaste. Delicious!! Unusual and highly drinkable!

Cloudy amber beer, big frothy white head. Light dry palate, a little frothy. Fresh and crispy. A little citrus under some nice aromatic and mellow ginger. A few other spices. Crispy dry finish. For a spiced beer this is not bad at all.

750 ml bottle courtesy of dazz3. Pours very hazy pale golden with a rather big frothy and fluffy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving lots of sticky lacing and trace on the glass. Smell is spicy with crackers, plums, dry soil, cedar, dark grapes, woody tannins, white pepper, allspice, lemon zest and orange zest. Taste is dry, tiny tart and very spicy with crackers, dry soil, cedar, cloves, allspice, lemon zest, dark grapes, white pepper, hay and grapefruit rinds. Mouthfeel is dry, tiny tart, watery and light bodied. Finish is dry and tart with crackers, dry soil, cloves, lemon zest, hay and allspice. Quite nice and refreshing but a tad bit too spicy dry.

750 ml bottle courtesy of dazz3. Pours very hazy amber with a frothy offwhite head that leaves a small sticky trace on the glass while dissipating. Smell is sweet, fruity and perfume like with sweet dark bread, orange peal, grapefruit juice, mango, resinous wood, marzipan, cherries in brandy, lemon juice, dark grapes, grass and hints of pine. Taste is sweet and slightly malty with sweet dark bread, cherries, grapefruit juice, resinous wood, red apples, marzipan, red wine and grass. Mouthfeel is slightly crisp, slightly tart and light to medium bodied. Finish is slightly sour and tart with biscuits, dark grapes, wood, sour cherries, crackers and grass. Quite tart which I think adds depth to this beer.

Pours dark amber with a small, fading head.Noes shows sweet caramel, over-ripe bananas, faint unidentifiable spices, may some garlic.Some sweet malt transfers through as a flavour, whilst the spices remain in the background, although they are a little more pronounced than in the aroma. some alcohol shows through, along with a metallic note.Carbonation is a bit excessive.

Zymatore draft version at Maxs Italian Fest. Opaque brown-black. Sour vinous aroma, some mild chocolate. Pinot Noir sour grape flavors, more so than any whiskey. No hop tones to speak of, dark malt wine beer. Some underlying caramel nuttiness gives it balance. Lacks the effervescence of a Belgian, which would have put it over the top. Very unique and enjoyable.

Bottle, 75cl, at RBNAG-11. It pours and unclear, amber body and a small, off-white head. There’s a light touch of berries on the nose, with pale malts, a faint caramel touch, something herbal and peppery, and a little bit of wood. It’s fruity and malty on the palate, warming, full-bodied and pleasantly carbonated. Berry notes, pepper and resiny hops in the flavor. Some resiny hoppy bitterness towards the end. A nice and unusual beer. 111015
