A muddy brown beer with a lazing brown head. The aroma is sweet malty with a light touch of spices. The flavor is sweet spicy combined with some notes of cellery, leading to a dry end, where the alcohol becomes present after have been hiding in the beginning.

(Bottle 33 cl) Slightly hazy reddish brown with a dense, beige head leaving some laces. Rather violent carbonation. Spicy aroma with ginger being very prominent. Very full-bodied with sweetish, roasted malt, brown sugar and dried fruit. Spicy, herbal almost medicinal - like cough syrup. 211006

Smells exactly like MiP Hot Hot Porter. Unclear dark brown colour, small, tight, light brown head. Peppery and sweet flavour with some liquorice. Aftertaste of pure liquorice. Good mouthfeel.
