FatPhil (2362), Espoo, Finland Apr 15, 2008 Updated: Apr 16, 2008 250ml bottle (BelgianShop)
Deep reddy brown, small persistent head. Sweet subtle spicy aroma, fruity, banana. Pleasant carbonation, succulent in the mouth. Very sweet fruity, spicy, almost cakey initial taste, some brandy vanilla cream. Upon
swallowing, the maltiness fills out a little, and some burnt corners poke through the sweetness. A little sticky, but that’s its only flaw. Covers
7.5% very well.

Dark fruit in the aroma-prunes, raisins, a hint of banana. Nice aroma actually. The taste is fruity with raisins dominating. Fairly dry to me. I thought there would be more sweetness in it. Good beer.
