Dark cloudy brown with some white head. Great aroma of choclate and spice, vanilla, and citrus orange. Very smooth mouthfeel, and while all of the tastes do not materialize boldy, it is very tasty and refreshing.A great brewery.
thanks for bringing in IPFreely.

Aug 18, 2008 On tap. Dark brown beer, beige head. Aroma of candy, christmas spice, malts. Flavour is very sweet, a bit sour, christmas spice (speculaas), roasted malts. Again, like most of their beers, way too sweet for me.

Aug 10, 2008 Bottle. Deep brown pour with a minor head. This beer was not what I was expecting at all. Pine and juniper dance around the malt-sweet and charcoal aroma. Big, lightly sweet malts in the flavor are unctuous but extremely drinkable, with a fast, tobacco and floral finish. Definitely the most drinkable 10.5% alcohol beer I’ve ever had. Well done.

Jul 30, 2008 On tap at O’Briens. Deep burgundy color, fading wispy head with some bubbles. Becomes still after sipping for a while. Very sweet aroma of candy sugar, raisin, rum and a restrained bubblegum note. Toffee, cherry and grape flavors meld with some medium caramel. Ends sugary with a red wine character. Quite alcoholic. Becomes a bit difficult to drink. Somewhat unbalanced.
