L'Ultima Luna
(has 1 batch)

Bottle courtesy of MrChopin, thanks! Pours deep ruby purple, small white edge head. Aroma of plums. Taste is syrupy pomegranite powder. Interesting and unique.

Bouteille 330ml (lot 2035), courtoisie de SlovakSniper. De couleur brune-ambrée foncée et voilée. Nez fruité (raisins légèrement vineux, moyen de prunes et de pommes vertes), boisé (fût de chêne), d’alcool liquoreux, de caramel toffee aux petites notes rôties, moyen de vanille avec des petites notes de chocolat noir. Ronde-moyenne en bouche avec un pétillement très faible ainsi qu’une texture liquoreuse et aux faibles notes vineuses. Goût fruité sucré (raisins légèrement vineux, notes de pommes vertes mûres et de cerises, traces de prunes) accompagné d’un moyen goût de vanille lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute très rapidement un goût malté de caramel toffee très sucré et aux faibles notes rôties avec des notes de chocolat noir et de biscuits. Parallèlement, l’on retrouve un goût très présent d’alcool liquoreux doux et assez boisé (fût de chêne, genre bourbon ou brandy) jusqu’en finale. Post-goût long, composé d’un goût d’alcool liquoreux doux et boisé (fût de chêne) avec un goût fruitté (moût de raisins, notes de moût de pommes).

Had this at Alvinne CBF 2011. Nice amber colored beer. Smell wine and dark fruits. Taste hints of wine, dark fs and a little alcohol.

Location: Bottle graciously shared with me at La Trappe Cafe & Trappist Lounge, 5/12/11

Aroma: The nose has a lot going on including oak/wood, vanilla, booze, malts, and caramel
Appearance: The pour is a dark reddish-brown color with a small bubbly beige head
Flavor: The taste has a good sweetness, rich and malty with some funk and acidic flavors as well
Palate: Really smooth, slight burn, low carbonation, big body, and way too drinkable for a 13% beer
Overall Impression: This was one was really interesting, thanks a bunch for sharing this awesome beer! A very well-made Barley Wine with an interesting complexity that is somewhat boozy but still dangerously drinkable considering the ABV. Anyway, I enjoyed sampling this one.

Bottle shared by Marcus. Pours very hazy amber. Vinous and oak aromas. Med body. Smooth. Flavor is vinous, lightly brown sugar and rather oaky. A smooth, pleasant experience. Finishes somewhat brandy. Nice.

Sampled at ACBF 2011. Deepamber colour. Sherry and wood aroma. Too much wood maybe. Yep like licking a barrel. Some tangerine fruit. Wood and crystallised tangerine fruit dominate. Tobacco too on the wood notes.

cloudy brown, no head. nice woody sour aroma, wood an sour wine aroma very strong. flavor is wood, sourness, wine, malts.

Bottled. An unclear red-brown beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of wood, brettanomyces, malt, and caramel. The flavor is sweet and a bit acidic with notes of caramel, alcohol, wood, brettanomyces, and malt, leading to a dry and slightly tart finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.
