Huge creamy offwhite head over hazy brown body. Acidic, spicy, yeasty aroma of wood. Taste is deep, spicy malts with cinnamon, spice notes. Tart, spicy cinnamon aftertaste. Powerful, drinkable, balanced, interesting. An excellent beer. (0.3l bottle.)

(Bottle at The Rover, Göteborg) Pours hazy, yeasty amber. Small white head. Dried citrus fruits in aroma with nuts and creamy toffee/cookie malt. Some allmond paste and yeast with acid hints. The flavour is medium sweet with a strange bitterness. A bit sour. Round, medium body.

Bottle at The Rake, London. Hazy, orangey amberwith a huge head. Fruity, leathery Orval-like Brettanomyces aroma. sweet, yet bitter, very Orval-like, only with warming alcohol. Dry finish. Full-bodied, good carbonation. One of the greatest Dutch beers around.

Bottle. Huge foamy light tanned head. Color is slight hazy orange/golden. Sweet and fruity aroma with notes of fresh hops. A remarkable tart taste along with malt sweetness, spices, oranges and some yeast. Well hopped and well balanced. Long dry finish. Very nice!

33cl bottle purchased on the advice of beastiefan2k Dark orange/light brown beer. Thin white head. Aroma is very sweet and malty. Sweet plumy aroma, some rummy raisiny notes as well. Spicy yeast and some soft wheaty pepper. Clove and cardamon aromaa. Flavour is good, nice sweet maltiness up front with clove and a bit of dustiness apparent as well. Soft but full texture. Very plummy and rummy. Light herbal flavour toward the finish with low to moderate bitterness. Tasty brew especially considering the bottle was only two bucks. Thanks for the heads up Eugene!

9% on label. Poured a hazy light amber color with a medium off white head. Aroma of toffee, spice, light sugar notes and hints of leather. There even seems to be a little mint in there. Light tartness on the fruity flavor. Mild spice on the back of the tongue.
