Wineous fruity and yeasty spiced aroma. Sweet fruity flavour. Light yeasty note. Light alcohol bite towards the finish. Lingering yeasty and caramel malt finish.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 1/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 9, 2008 Copper amber with a large white head and hazy masses of floating debris. Rarely have I seen such an ugly beer. It gets a rare 1 for appearance. The aroma is much more promising: honey malt, yeast and alcohol are a heady combination. The taste has sweetness, sour alcohol, dark fruits and a lovely rather basic leathery taste. There’s a little bitterness, but the main impression is malt. FatPhil (3468), Espoo, Finland

Deep orange, hazy, small head. Sweet soft palate. Very malty, very pleasant. This beer is so not 10.5%, so very pleasant to drink - a stealth beer that’s for sure. This is not just an ambree - it’s less sweet than a typical one, and has a woody bent to the generous malt. Very well balanced. Potent but very subtle, and understated. Danes and yanks please take note! thewolf (5727), Kolding, Denmark
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 21, 2008 Bottle. [thank you, Yespr] Pours a beautiful deep amber with a stunning, big, creamy white head. Good duration with lots of bubbles reaching up from the bottom of my glass. Aroma is lightly funky, some oak along with prunes, oranges, raisins and yeast. High to medium carbonation, rather light feel. Flavour is rather sweet, lots of caramel - the dark fruits are still there, but more subdued than in the aroma. A light nuttyness sets in with the aftertaste along with a good warming viniousness. Good brew and a bit underrated imo.
