Pours a hazy dark orange amber with a two finger creamy light tan head that leaves a sticky lace. The nose is sweet and spicy, cinnamon, earthy Belgian tones, yeasty. The flavor is sweet, earhty, Belgian yeast, fruity and spicy, cinnamon here too and it actually causes the beer to taste a little hot. Like chewing a lot of Big Red. Fairly carbonated and finishes spicy.

Aug 19, 2008 Bottle. Brown-gold pour with a big white head. Cloudy and leaving amazing lacing. Pungent sharp sourness with cinnamon behind it. Opens with cinnamon into big barnyard-earthy funk. Finishes with deep bitter dark chocolate. Full-bodied and highly drinkable. The chocolate in the finish is a perfect contrast to the sourness. Masterfully-balanced like so many JP offerings.

Jul 28, 2008 Bottled. Hazy and amber coloured with a rather large white head. Quite malty with notes of orangepeel, cloves, cinnamon, cocoa, cherry, nuts and wood. Ok balanced and quite complex - maybe even a little confusing.

Jul 27, 2008 Mørk nøddebrun med beige skum som hurtigt forsvinder. Dufter af gløgg og kanel, maltet og noget sjovt syrligt, nødder og appelsin. Syrlig i smagen, nødder maltet, noget appelsinskal og cacao. Humlen er meget anonym og overdøvet af krydderierne
