Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 8 | Flavor: 8 | Overall: 8
pours a hazy orange colour under a little unregular but stable beige foam; nice lace; charming spicy aroma (sage comes to mind but only since I know this to be used :-)), some fruity notes in the background (old apples and pineapple); some tartness due to the high carbonation, a solid bitterness (nice to see it back withoutthe unpleasant sourness which caused some sorrows to the brewer and his fans some years ago); long bitter spicy and herbal finish - it has been more than 5 years since I have not drink this beer and take some notes and I am glad to see it back at its top

copper-orange colour, giant creamy head, aroma of grapefruit with citric and buttery notes, some hazelnut too, a bit acidic, good malt body, very strong and tart bitterness, the finish is very long and very hoppy, dry and showing more citrusy and grapefruity notes - aggressive, disturbing and very good; there are tons of hops here !

Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 4 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6
a glühbeer which has to be tasted at 60 degree C - it is dark brown without foam; cold, it has a deep aroma of honey, cinnamon and cane sugar, the flavor beeing just sweet and flat; hot, some alcohol aroma comes between the cinnamon and the honey, the flavor is very sweet (probably too much), but a pleasant hint of bitterness is coming in the finish - don't drink too much of that stuff or you will get a bad headache

2004 vintage (brewed between january and march), oak-aged in grappa barrels; bottled in october 2005; limited to 1’000 bottles - it pours a hazy dark bordeaux colour; don’t look for the foam here, you have no chances to see any; it shows a complex aroma where the fruits appear first (prune and cherry), some honey and licorice too; vinous; low carbonation, very thick and sticky, robust initial sweetness sonn met by a powerful bitterness; solid malt body; long woody finish with notes of licorice and alcohol - the low carbonation impacts on its structure and prevents it to be a really great beer ... but a pleasant experience it still is !

cloudy dark orange colour, the initial foam disappears instantanely; very fruity aroma (peach, apricot) with some yeasty notes in the background; full-bodied and sparkling which makes the strong sweetness less obvious; oily; dry and bitter at the end with a long bready and fruity finish (apple, peach); a touch of warming alcohol - a pleasant beer despite a bubblegum-like mouthfeel
