Nov 27, 2008 Bottle: Dark amber cherry, nose of smoke and caramel, smoky nutty flavor with light spice and fig. Not sure what chestnuts taste like but it’s sweet and chewy. Complex, toasty, earthy, nutty cloying tail and super spicy. Not worth the price.

Nov 18, 2008 Bottle, bought @ YNWA, Kolding.
Pours lightly hazy, dark amber with a great, creamy, yellowish-white head. Fine duration, good lacing. Aroma is very nutty, sweet caramel, some nougat and vinious. Highish carbonation, great creamy mouthfeel nonetheless. Flavour is very nice. Sweet nuttiness - almost Nutella-ish - light cocoa, vinious and light toffee. Long, lingering aftertaste with clear chestnut and light hops. Very lovely.

Oct 26, 2008 Explosive volcanic opening to this beer lead to a dirty brown pour with crazy tall rocky tan head. The aroma is rich and varied maltiness and has a nice level of nuttiness. It seems like full on chestnut. The taste is much the same with prunes, figs, and raisins that are rich and yummy. It has a spike of alcohol esters that is out of place just before a nice tasty nuttiness appears and helps take this to the finish. This is pretty good stuff.

1/2 of the beer gone upon opening it. The whole beer came springing out of the bottle which is bad considering how hard it is to get the bottle and how darn good the beer actually is.
Pours a very cloudy brown, with brownish head.
Aroma is loaded with a nutty (chestnut) presence, yeasty and some floral notes
Taste, dark fruits, chestnuts, malty.
Really enjoyable beer, more goodness out of Italy.
