AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 18/20 billb (245) - Acworth, Georgia, USA - MAY 30, 2000Can usually be found all year round in my neck of the woods. Quite an interesting mouthfeel ... it's hoppy but delicate with a slight hop aftertaste. One point I'd like to make is I like this beer better cold than I do warm which is pretty atypical for me.
MarkSachon (1194) - Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 8, 2022UPDATED: JAN 8, 2022 Nice and chewy, nothing overdone, just pretty much as it should be. Good to warm the spritis on a cold winter's day
JMCtime (132) - Washington, USA - JAN 2, 2022UPDATED: JAN 2, 2022 Malty, light bitterness and a touch of spice. Decent flavor and easy to drink.
Obfuscate (1285) - Minneapolis, - JAN 1, 2022UPDATED: JAN 1, 2022 4-ounce taster glass at home. A solid winter beer. Mosty clean malts but a bit of spice. Not boozy, wish it had a little more warmth but a solid beer all around.
zage (607) - Kaunas, LITHUANIA - DEC 31, 2021UPDATED: DEC 31, 2021 Clear amber color with frothy head. Caramel, malt, bread aromas. Average bitterness. Light body.

arsol (2318) - Sørumsand, NORWAY - DEC 22, 2021UPDATED: DEC 22, 2021 Klar gyllen farge med off-white skum. Lukter malt, karamell og krydder. Mild lettdrikkelig med noe sødme.
Grumpelmies (963) - GERMANY - DEC 17, 2021UPDATED: DEC 17, 2021 Bottle. Clear pale orange sporting a decent white head. Mild aroma of oranges, toffee and malts. Taste of caramel, orange marmelade, toffee, malts and dried fruits. Low to moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. A little bit of alcoholic warmth. Ok but it also felt somewhat disappointing.
RuneStumo (3416) - Haugesund, NORWAY - DEC 13, 2021UPDATED: DEC 13, 2021 13.12.2021. 0,55L Bottle. Vinmonopolet Oasen, Karmsund. Golden colour with white head. Very smooth and nice malty aromas and flavours. Very nice soft bitterness gives the beer a very smooty body. Rich.
simontomlinson (4357) - Lancashire, ENGLAND - DEC 12, 2021UPDATED: DEC 12, 2021 2021/2022 bottle.
Creamy white head stayed on a deep amber coloured body.
Malt, bitter & spiced fruits aroma.
Medium bodied, smooth & lively on the back.
Malt, sweet berries, spiced fruits & orange peel tastes with a bitter peppery finish.
Very tasty.
dragnet101 (2331) - Birmingham, West Midlands, ENGLAND - NOV 17, 2021UPDATED: NOV 17, 2021 Bottle from House of Trembling Madness.
Pours a clear amber with small off-white head, some retention, Standard.
Aroma is a little tinny (aka pasteurised) but reasonable with malty caramel notes as well raisin and pear fruitiness.
Taste is certainly more welcoming on a near winter night with caramel and toffee notes, raisins, dried fruits and spice, a little zesty bitterness. Very nice.
Medium bodied, zingy carbonation.
Far from perfect but nonetheless enjoyable.
