Bottled. A hazy deep red beer with a tan head. The aroma has notes of spices, cinnamon, caramel, malt, and other spices. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, malt, spices, over ripe fruits, and some wood, leading to a dry woody finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of JohnC. Pours a clear orangey brown with a lively and dissipating off-white head. Sweet cinnamon aroma - almost like a pumpkin ale. Solid body, lively carbonation with big bubbles. Lots of spice and brown sugar, some phenols and molasses. A little chocolate as well. Discreet bitterness. 231109
