"Was on a roll till i did this one. Poured a clody brown color good lacing. Aroma was of ginger and i am not a ginger fan. Flavor was overwelmed by ginger, some pine and other spices. This was way overspiced. "

[2] Review by eaglefan538 from DE, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/3/2006 12:22:44 AM)
"Murky brown color, slight orange hues. Rather large head for 10% ABV, great lacing too. Aroma was of strong cloves, other fruits, other spices and pine, vinegar, almost a flemish sour aroma. The flavor was spice overload, cloves most notable, cinnamon, nutmeg, even roses. Alcohol was not bad for this level, hid well. Some slight sour aspects to the aftertaste. Mouthfeel was slightly acidic. The spicing was way too overdone, leaving this one in disappiontment."

[3] Review by doulos31 from Middletown, DE, USA who has tried this beer once. (10/2/2006 9:10:26 PM)
"Beer poured dark brown with surprisingly big head. Aroma could be detected from across the table. Flavor was seriously spicy, lots of ginger. Very sweet from brown sugar and a touch of barnyard and a strong burn at the end. I can't say I was crazy about it, but a very unique brew."

[4] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (9/8/2006 12:57:20 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a dark brown color ale with a super huge light brown foamy head with excellent retention. Aroma of sweet candy, spices which may includes some pepper and some sourness. Taste is quite eclectic with something that resemble like sweet candy at first and then I got it with a mix between pepper, sour malt and dry finish form some weird hops. Body is lighter then expected for such a beer and alcohol is well hidden. Not bad overall but not great either. It just seems like too many things are going on at once."

[5] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (6/4/2006 5:23:03 PM)
"Really dark brown, thick light brown head. Very spicy aroma of anise, wormwood, ginger, mint and alcohol. Foresty impression in flavour, some, leaves and moss with notes of coriander and bark. Herbal, spicy and foresty aftertaste. Finishes dry and pleasant.
