Huge thanks to WillemsUrenkel for that one! Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass amber coloured, small head. Starts milder than exspected, malty-spicy. Some woody hints. Light metallical touch. Finish well balanced, malty-spicy, some herbal notes. Could be a bit more balanced. Okay.

Huge thanks to WillemsUrenkel for that one. Bottle looks simple but good. Beer in the glass with a nice small head. Intense spicy aroma. Notes of christmas spices. Starts mild, malty, wheaty. More and more spicy, herbal notes, some different spices. Mild bitter background. Finish well balanced, again spicy-malty. Interesting one!

Cooperation between Hopfenfänger, Union Brauerei Bremen and Schüttinger, same recipe but brewed each at their own kettles. Horizontal testing in identical glass ware. Version purchased at the brew pub in an 0,33 l bottle. Murky red amber in the glass, small one finger light tanned head. Lightest of all three. Low malty aroma with caramel, some fruity elements in the background. Taste is malty smooth grain and caramel. Some wood. Not very complex. Dry malty mid bitterness in the aftertaste. Below average carbonated. Hidden alcohol.
