From tap at Speciaalbiercafé De Markies, Leeuwarden. Aroma is pale malt, spicy yeast, clove, some nutmeg, mild fruity with a hoppy touch. Flavour is above moderate sweet and bitter. Body is medium. Okay spicy Belgian style beer.

Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Aroma is grainy malt, hay, straw, grassy and slighty floral noble hops, and a hint of citrus. Flavour is light sweet and moderate bitter. Body is medium. Pretty exquisite Pilsener, I would enjoy a large pint of this one.

Can from Trader Joe's in Davis, CA. Pours very dark brown with a creamy dark tan head that persisted. Aroma of cinnamon and ginger with a little roast. Med body. Not dry, but not all that sweet. Spice for bitterness. Lots of cinnamon and ginger. Some coffee. Excellent flavor for a "spiced" ale.

Can to glass. . . Dark and smelling of ginger..odd indeed. Finishing as Indian food essence. As it gets warmer....does not improve. Heavy spice with the promise of coffee. Disappointing 😞 Its just too much imbalance of ginger for me. May just be my taste.

Pour is a black with a large tan head. Aroma is all things cacao nibs. Smells like Hershey chocolate syrup. Flavor is more chocolate syrup with a slight dash of vanilla and a bit of alcohol. This beer should come with a vial of insulin because it is way sweet. Tasty yes but it was so sweet it kind of gave me a headache.
Dark black body medium foamy light brown head. Chocolate roast peppermint coffee aroma. Chocolate peppermint coffee roast nutty flavor. Full body moderately low carbonation. 8/5/9/4/17 4.3
