This high-fermentation beer has a clear, light and warm brown-red colour. The rich and pleasantly fruity aroma has slight hints of caramel. The rounded flavour is strengthened by a strong but pleasant bitterness.

[1] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (3/27/2008 3:43:56 PM)
"hazy amber colour with a rich off-white creamy foam. Sugary aroma with notes of toffee, raisins, caramel and alcohol. Raw and sugary flavour of raisins and caramel with alcoholic undertones. Medium-bodied. Long, unrefined and unbalanced finish of brown sugar, syrup and alcohol. "

[2] Review by oh6gdx from Vaasa, Finland who has tried this beer once. (6/7/2007 12:55:59 AM)
"Rubyish amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is sweet caramel malts, sour berries and some sweet alcoholic notes. Flavour is quite wellbalanced of berries, yeast, alcohol, sweet malts, some hops and slight sugar. Not very exciting though. "

[3] Review by S8N from Ottawa, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/20/2005 10:05:11 PM)
"Pours a somewhat clear slightly carbonated brown colour with a creamy off white head and good retention, lacing is quite simply exceptional. Aroma is slightly hoppy and flowery/fruity. Subtle flavors of dark fruits come to mind, with some sweetness to it. Mouthfeel is ever so slightly carbonated, with a smooth creamy finish."

[5] Review by Zaitsev from Moscow, Russia who has tried this beer once. (8/1/2002 9:48:20 AM)
"It's a bitter and sour beer from abbey brewery, tea colored with wine tone in taste and finish. Such kind of beer is quite unusual for me, but anyway, I wouldn't say it's not good."
