Orange brown with short lasting head. Sweet vinous malty beer with a strong caramel note, quite toffee like with hints of treacle syrup. Any hop note has disappeared unfortunately, but leaving a reasonable pasteurised bottled beer. PLundsgaard (207), Tranbjerg J, Denmark Dec 25, 2008 Aroma/Malty-Ligth,

OK beer Muggus69 (500), Sydney, Australia Oct 9, 2008 Old review from my notes...
Served at cellar temperature in Duvel glass. Pours orange/copper body with washy white head and chunks! Faint suggestions of hops on the nose. Body packs more punch than aroma suggests. Slight surupyness to it with flavours that pop out at you almost unexpectedly. Toffee, orange, and medicinal note, sweet throughout with quite an abrupt finish. Not much bitterness to speak of. Wasn’t sure what to think at the beginning, but has a enjoyable and quite drinkable flavour about it. oh6gdx (8798), Vasa, Finland Apr 25, 2005 Bottled. Copper colour, foamy beige head, lacing. Fruitish aroma with weak bready hints. Also weak caramelly hints and very weak hints of alcohol. Flavour of sweet malt along with some breadish and roasted notes. Also some hoppy notes. Very smooth flavour and palate. OKBeer (1159), Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada Dec 22, 2004 500 ml clear bottle. Golden amber colour with a frothy off-white head. Once the inital skunk passes (why oh why must they use clear glass bottles?), a decent aroma of bread, caramel, and some leafy and earthy hops. Light caramel and toasty flavours with a earthy and light piny bitter finish. Refreshing but watery mouthfeel, medium bodied. bluevegie (2169), Perth, Australia Aug 31, 2004 Coppery golden amber coloured body with an off-white medium size mainly lasting head. Slight nutty aroma. Taste is ok but just a little thin, caramel, malt, some bitterness, apples and fairly smooth. Boystout (900), Chisinau, Moldova Aug 16, 2004 Bottled. Deep amber colour and medium head. Sweet malty spicy aroma, pretty strong hoppiness and again mild buttery maltiness. A high quality ale.
