Deep red, thin head. Apple and spicy pie aroma. Slightly gluey taste, and obviously packing a punch. Decent hoppiness, but cannot punch through the alcohol and glue. However, it is still very tempting. Very strong pear esters towards the end. Prefer the ordinary Tremens.
Rerate, one-year-old bottle (previous rating: 7 4 6 3 13)
Nice fruity aroma. Winey aroma when poured, later spicy and a bit pie-ey, even cakelike, also. Smooth palate. Sweet toffee. Cakey, spicy, and fruity, with a hint of almond and woodiness in the finish. Quite a hoppy finish, actually..

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 12, 2008 Bottle. Another interesting and complex beer from delirium. Tastes mainly of bread and sweet fruit with raisins. The interesting part of this beer was at the finish where I detected a distinct peppery finish. Must have been the yeast used. Very unique, kept me interested the whole way through. You have to try this brew atleast once.
