Ruby colour, minimal pinkish head, aroma of cherry, some cinnamon and clove; taste is mulled wine-ish, with cloves, cinnamon and cherry; more sour-ish when boiled; many thanks for sharing kapusil!
0.75l bottle. Tried it both at room temperature and mulled. Ruby red body with a pink head. Aroma and taste of sour cherry, cloves and cinnamon with a slight lemon juice-like sourness. When mulled, it's less sweet and more acidic. Nice one.
Bottle finks to kapusil. Pours brownish pinkish red. Aroma is cinnamon, cloves, cherry. Taste is sweet cherry, cinnamon, basically mulled wine beer. A bit sticky and sweet palate. Enjoyable and unique.
Heated it on the stove and it was even better. Less sweet, more citrus and orange on the nose. Taste is more tart and vinous.
Flaska från SB. Rödlila färg med rosa skum. Doft av körsbär, nejlika och ingefära.
Oklar brunröd utan skum. Doftar körsbär och julkryddor, kanel, nejlika och stjärnanis. Smaken mellanfyllig, söt och kryddig. Eftersmaken lång och söt med kryddiga och juliga smaker, pepparkakor på slutet.
Fra 0,75 flaske ombord på Fridtjofen, Holmens maritime juleølsmaking 08.12.18: servert oppvarmet var dette en overraskende delikatesse, og en av kveldens aller beste. Helt på sin plass at jeg bokfører denne som min rating nr. 8000! Klar mørkerød med svært kort skum. Nydelig aroma og smak med krisebær, julekrydder, rosier og fiken. Slantene smakte like godt romtemperert. Et herlig juleøl med stor personlighet.
Underbart julöl! Jag hade bakat en tysk stollen-kaka och hade detta öl till, en oöverträfflig kombination. Hela munnen smakar jul
04-12-18 // tap at Kuehn Kunz Rosen. Served warm! Might be really great in the cold on a christmas market. But now in our taproom, quite sweet, warm cherry chewing gum. Spices. Would still prefer this any time over a Glühwein.
Flaska. Körsbär, aningen syntetiska. Inte så syrlig som vissa öl från samma tillverkare. Bäst kall eller het; mellanvarm känns den tunn. Russin och mandel som tillbehör, men kanske inte i.
Barva kaštanová, vzhled neprůhledný. Vůně: třešně, pečené jablko, skořice. Chuť: kořenitá, lehce alkoholová, skořice, jablko. Doznívání: ovocné, sladké.
Příjemné, kořeněné ovocné pivo, kriek udělaný ve stylu svařáku :D. Spokojenost.
Dieses Bier war ein Mitbringsel vom Weihnachtsmarkt in Rothenburg ob der Tauber 2017.
Ich habe die Flasche geöffnet und gleich einmal das "Bier" kalt versucht. Dabei hat es mir so gut gemundet, dass ich die ganze 0,75 l-Flasche ausgetrunken habe.
Es schmeckt sicher nicht allzu sehr nach Bier, sondern erinnert an Schilcher- bzw. Uhudler-Glühwein.
Ein spezielles, nicht unbedingt sehr bieriges, aber ausgezeichnetes Getränk.
Aroma: Medium cherry, sour cinnamon clove, dried apples,
Appearance: Clear, dark copper body. Small, pink/brown head. Fine bubbles.
Flavour: Medium spicy, nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, cherry, Slightly sweet, spicy, cherry finish, but still dry.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium-high carbonation.
Overall: Great balance of spice, malt, and fruitiness. The gluhwein and cherries work perfectly.
750 ml bottle, poured. Thanks Tanja!
30C. Winter Seasonal
Fles 37,5cl thuis. 5%. Erg zoet, bubblegum, suikers, kers, kruidnagel. Warm: glühwein, te zoet. (12-2015).
Aus der Flasche (Vintage 2016) im 2018-04 getrunken. Wird dieses Ale kalt getrunken ist es schon toll, aber wir es kurz erwärmt stehen die Kirsch- und Weihnachtsaromen wunderbar im Vordergrund. Dazu ist es warm deutlich süßer als wenn es kalt ist. Spanned und es macht einfach Spaß. Es ist eine sensationelle Alternative zu Glühwein. Geiles Zeug wenn es warm ist!
Bottle sample at tasting at Beer&Beyond, Tel Aviv. Served hot (about ~60°C). Clear deep red with pinkish head. The aroma has lots of cherries, hot cider, wood, fruit cake, red wine, spices, clove, cinnamon. Sweet flavor with lots of cherries, hot cider, red wine, some citrus, spices, clove, cinnamon. Soft carbonation, medium to full-bodied. Very enjoyable.
09/02/2018 @home 75cl bottle from Prik&Tik Edelare.
Warmed up, red colour, foam comes apparently when it's warm enough. Nose is heavy sweet cherries, some spice. Taste is sweet cherries, sypury, spice, red wine.
Bottle. Pours a hazy dark red colour with a small pink head. Aroma of cherries, sweet candy, licorice, oak, spices and wood. Sweet flavour of cherries, lemonade, earth, oak and dried fruit. Has a slick and silky mouth feel, medium body and a light bitterness. Pretty sweet beer, fruity and decent.
Flaska. Drucken kall. Dimmig rödbrun öl med ett smutsrött skum. Doft och smak är söt med körsbärsfruktighet och lättare glöggkryddning.
Bottles from Mmm...Glug, Newcastle, Watermill Inn, Ings and Drinkswell, Ripon.
2018-01-01: Drank Warm. Dark red-purple in colour with no head. It has a very warming spicy cherry flavour with liquorice, ginger, cinnamon and christmas spices on the finish. Excellent - even better when warmed!
2018-01-01: Dark red-brown-purple in colour with a thin white head. It has a very rich, sweet cherry, liquorice and spiced flavour with cinnamon and plum notes on the very smooth warming fruity finish. Great.
2009-03-14: A deep ruby red beer with a very rich, sweet cherry flavour and a warming cherry finish.
2003-05-17 drank hot!
Just lovely. Warmed on the stove it has all the flavour of a continental, winter market. Juicy cheeprry, cinnamon and other spices. Perfect for a winter, evening drink.
Bottle @ home. 2011 vintage. I always prefer this one after a couple of years in the cellar when the spices and the cherries blends even better. And still after six years it's still very refreshing with hints of vinous dark fruits adding to the complexity. Merry Christmas!
körsbär ....
Bottle 6% color is dark red with a small white head. Aroma is glue wine and cherrie taste is cherries and a sweet aftertaste overall a very sweet beer almost a glue wine.
Served warm. Deep dark red with no head whatsoever. Aroma is sweet with almonds and sweet, marmelady cherries. Taste is sweet and juicy, but at the same time very jamy, cherries, almonds and not much more. Medium mouthfeel, no carbonation and sweet, sticky aftertaste.
Schönes Dunkelrot, fruchtig im Aroma. Ebenso im Trunk, süß, aber definitiv besser als der Glühwein hier.
Served hot on Christmas Market in Hanau, Germany. Pours red with a thick slightly pinkish head. Very nice, flavors of cherry, some spice, nice sour note. Very nice alternative to the omnipresent Glühwein. Very good.
Bottle from systembolaget, Östersund. After some strong beers, it felt almost like alcohol free glögg but at 6% it certainly isn't. It is very much spiced and it feels more like Swedish glögg rather than gluwein as it is so sweet. A pretty nice christmas beer, certainyly for those with a sweet tooth. Re-rated. Apperance like dark nasty blood. Decent beer though, agreed with previous ratings, up 0.1.
Red/brown color, small red-ish head. Aromas of cherry flavored taffy and "glögg". Sweet taste of cherry flavored taffy, "glögg" and slight gooseberries. One-dimensional, but pretty cool.
Dufter næsten som glögg: kanel, rødvin, nelliker.
Smager let surt og sødt, men også krydret.
Lever op til navnet og overrasker positivt.
Bottle, november 19th 2016. Served heated. Dark red body, herbal aroma with cherries, clove and cinnamon. Spicy taste with cherry and apples, plum, malt. Very sweet berry finish. Special and nice.
