Bottled. Aroma has caramel maltiness, dried fruits. Hazy, brown coloured with a lasting, off-white head. Taste is sweet, full. It has caramel malts, a hint of nuts, dried fruits, some yeast and spice. Really nice.

Cloudy red-brown colour. Fairly rich aroma and taste. Dry fruit and spice comes through a little at the end. Not a bad beer but lacks any great depth of flavour.

33 cL bottle, Kerstbierfestival 2007 in Essen/Belgium as #84 Postel Christmas. Pours copper and golden with a little orange lacing head. Malty and slight dried fruity aroma. Flavour starts sweet with a solid caramel malty note mixed with a slight herbal and spice note. Finish is a lingering spice note with a medium sweet spiced malt flavour.
