Draught at ZBF. Smells distinctly of libraries and dusty old books plus some heavy paprika and cinnamon. The savoury of the paprika and the cinnamon mix well. The spicy character totally dominates everything and it suffers slightly as a result. Cant get past that old and dusty note. Reminds me of old school hallways and corridors. It has character I’ll give it that much... SHIG (2037), Aviano, Italy

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Mar 3, 2007 Draught Fully hazy brown-orange beer with a small beige head. Extremely spicey nose, pine and cypress needles, cloves, cumin (a lot!), maybe lavender. Again spicey flavours, cumin, cinnamon, green cardemom, cloves. Sweet, touch of alcohol. Very full bodied, oily, pappery even. A bit heavy on the spices, no? Still, not an uninteresting beer. It’s for supping with the turkey, and getting stuffed in full. thebeertourist (2822), Oslo, Norway
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 2, 2007 Bottle. Dark brown with a healthy khaki head. Spicy aroma with sweet caramel subdued by herbs and spicy yeastiness.Sweet caramel sweetness meeting herbs (read:thyme)- it is a meeting, not a marriage. Full body, soft mouthfeel. Not sure if I would say that using thyme is an example to follow- it is basically too overpowering. Yet the taste is very original and as such strangely addictive.
