jbrus (4834), Delft, Netherlands Oct 25, 2009 Bottle@Home. Licorice, smoke, black currant and other stuff; complex aroma. Ruby colour, light brown small head, fair lace. Rather sweet, licorice, lightly smoked, the aroma is more complex than the flavour. Flavourful and is has a real Christmas feeling. altonbrownd (1862), Amsterdam, Netherlands Oct 10, 2009 Bottle from Bierkoning. Dark black with thin head. Sweet chocolate, syrupy nose. Light taste goes into heavy dark chocolare and syrupy roasted malts. Full-bodied and enjoyable. A bit watery, but nice tasting nonetheless. Borup (1345), Albertslund, Denmark Jun 22, 2009 Bottle. Clear amber colour with a nice beige head. Aroma and flavour of spice, fruit, chocolate and roasted malt. Jonte (801), Gothenburg, Sweden Nov 21, 2008 Bottle. Stored for one year. Reddish brown color with a beige head. Rosted and spicy aroma with notes of bread, figs, roasted seeds, and licorice. Rosted flavor with rosted seeds, bread, dark fruits, licorice, smoke, spices. A bit watery/light bodied for this kind of beer. Maybe stored too warm? LisaR (46), Gothenburg, Sweden Nov 20, 2008 Stored for one year. At home.
Brown/red colour. Aroma: roasted, spicy, bread, roasted seeds. Flavor: licorice, light, a bit smoke. Mogwai (217), Askeby, Denmark Jul 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours a clear golden colour with small short lasting head. Aroma is spicy and roasted of coffee, but still sweet. Flavor is much of the same with roasted malts. Also has the required X-mas spicy feel, but it is dominated by coffee. mjs (1445), Helsinki, Finland Apr 24, 2008 (From old notes, bottle on 2008-01-12) Rather strong bodied beer. Plenty of roasted malts in taste. Some hops. Hints of coffee. Ageing would perhaps be good for this one. Bragesnak (2223), Aarhus, Denmark Apr 15, 2008 From Superbrugsen, Aarhus
