All caramel and buttercotch on the palette - Decent stuff; nice head, too - drank at about 55 degrees; perfect for this style of beer berkshirejohn (1830), Bracknell, Berkshire, England
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 21, 2009 On tap at the Live and Let Live, Cambridge at 8% ABV. Poured a murky reddish chestnut with a thin ring of white head; some spice to the aroma; dry and somewhat acrid flavour with some fennel and some rich caramel malts; the finish is again lightly spiced with some coriander, and the alcohol is well masked. Pleasant, but I was expecting more from this. JohnC (2286), Mission Viejo, California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Oct 18, 2009 On tap at Blue Palms, clear medium brown, not as dark as I would have expected. It had a nice sweet flavor (the wife really liked it). It didn’t have the dark fruitiness you get with a lot of trippels, but it was very tasty. bergstaden (112), Røros, Norway

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 4, 2009 Pours a reddish brown color with a nice head and good lace. Aroma has some notes of Anise, some sweet malt, and a really nice caramel character. The flavor is sweet, but somehow balanced. Some bready notes some good yeastiness, some anise, some spiciness, and of course plenty of caramel. Very tasty.
