JorisPPattyn (4216), Antwerpen, Belgium Jun 26, 2008 Medium yellowish head over deep-amber beer. Ouch. Lavender, juniper, dogrosehips, enormously perfumed. Very spicy taste, lavender and juniper, aniseed as well, but some good dark malts make the taste at least better balanced than the nose. Medium bodied, sharp MF from the spices. Still, generally speaking not balanced enough. Monkeypower (16), Odense C, Denmark Jun 15, 2008 Dark red copper without much of a head. Aroma with plenty of spices. Malty flavour. Perhaps some aniseed amongst the spices? A bit like a low-alcholic "en enkelt". JK54B (205), Finland Jun 3, 2008 Bottle. Dark reddish colour. Malt aromas. Not many hops. Some mint in the nose. Also some spices. Belgisk_Olklub (199), Viby J, Denmark Apr 27, 2008 Bottle. Large creamy, white, lasting head with good lacing. Dark red/brown body. Heavy malt aroma of bread, caramel and cereal. Light hop aroma. Heavy spiced of vegetable and cooked cabbage. Medium body, nice creamy texture and a lively carbonation. The flavor has a long duration, is moderate/heavy sweet and light bitter. The beer is well spiced - too much in the long run. Bragesnak (936), Aarhus, Denmark Apr 10, 2008 Aarhus, DK
Bottled
A very spiced and medicine like sweetness. Interesting but the additives are overwhelming
