Nov 19, 2008 Wax tightened 1.5 l. bottle. Cloudy reddish brown colour with a creamy beige head. Aroma is spicy with lots of ripe fruit like prunes. Lots of malts and just a slight alcohol. Creamy body with the ability of make small explosions in your mouth underlining all the tasting notes which is nuts, chocolate, raisins, caramel, spices and dark sugar. Great brew!

Sep 27, 2008 Updated: Sep 28, 2008Somewhat opaque reddish-bronze, lots of sediment, and a nice, long-lasting foamy yellow-white head. The nose is very yeasty with copious almond, dark fruit and figs, orange, and pepper. Flavor is yeasty and sweet with some dusty malt and woody pear. Palate is large but a little fizzy which seems overbearing given the already aggressive pepper and yeast in the beer, but this is still a good one.

Sep 25, 2008 Updated: Nov 4, 200933 cl, bb 14/02/2011. Opaque, dark copper-brown with a gushing head that settles to a lasting half-inch of creamy cappuccino-like foam. Aromas of nutmeg, brown sugar, dates, plums, cinnamon and bread pudding. Flavor is all the same, plus some cherry, pear, wheat, apple, chocolate, toasted oak, light citrus and resin. Medium-heavy body is smoothly carbonated, lightly tingly, and amazingly well-dried for all the big malt flavors.

Sep 22, 2008 Brown pour with huge white head. Visible particles floating around. Grapes, brown sugar, chocolate and caramel in the nose and flavor. Very full bodied and rich mouthfeel. Amazing brew.

Sep 22, 2008 750ml bottle thanks to Glouglouburp. Pours cloudy dark brown with red highlights with a very fizzy offwhite head. Lots of fine, offwhite floaters, I was prepared for that so it was cool. Smells sweet malty with some slight dark malty ripe fruitiness. I smelled some hops as well. Tastes sweet and ripe fruity, malty of course. I didn’t think it was all that complex or anything. Full body, fizzy carbonation.

Sep 15, 2008 330 mL bottle. Pours slightly red brown with tons of large debris and an off-white head that dissolves into a thin foam. Aromas of sweet caramel, tart apple, dark fruits. Taste is an excellent mix of caramel and raisin with some breadiness and tartness coming through afterwards. But wow is the mouthfeel creepy with all that big debris. Still it’s not too hard to get over with this kind of flavor.

Sep 8, 2008 750ml. This foamed over a lot. Soo many floaties. Aroma is crazy. So complex. It’s like fruit bread, definitely has raisiny smell to it. I would need to have this beer several more times to begin to comprehend everything going on. Flavor is more normal but still quite complex with lots of sweet fruit and bread.
