330ml bottle. Ambrata spenta, opaca, schiuma leggera color avorio/bianco sporco, poco persistente. Al naso sentori di caramello, toffee, vaniglia, uva passa, frutta candita, alcol. In bocca è intensissima, caramello, alcol, legno, finale amaro e leggermente acidulo, molto lunga. Corpo pieno, carbonazione leggera. Tanta roba.

330ml bottle bought at Ølbutikken, Copenhagen a few years ago. Shared with Finn and Richard. Clingy lacing from a filmy layer. Clear amber coloured body. Smell of oak vanilla and citrus shells. Well blended taste of prunes, caramel. oak and ripe citrus. Lingering bittersweet finish. Smooth on the swallow. Just a lovely late night sipper among good friends (Tromsø 08.10.2016).

Oh boy. Yoghurt, doughy, touch of sour fruit, some spices and wood. Sweetness overrules the sour start. Backlog from 2014/10/18. --- Beer merged from original tick of De Molen Rhythm & Blues on 18 Oct 2014 at 23:21 - Score: 8

At a tasting, thanks, smallish head, murky earthy orange color, aroma of wax, cake, ripe fruits and vanila woodiness, strong vanila traits, strong fruity sourness, spicy cake and some chocolate in the back, light but evident bitterness. Intriguing.

Bottle shared at a tasting at Max’s place. Bottled 6/24/13. Cloudy orange. Great aroma of malt, bourbon, vanilla, cookies, caramel, and fruity esters. Sweet flavor with malt, strong fruitiness, a mild tart note, vanilla, wood, caramel, a chocolate note, a bit of bitterish stale hops, and a salty note. Medium-bodied. Very nice.

Botella 33 cl tomada en el momento en Oviedo 17..10..2015. (r220). Embotellada 24..06..2013 por 10 años. Color rojizo turbio con espuma beige poco persistente. Aromas maltosos y caramelos tostados dulces con toques de maderas y licores. Sabores también maltosos dulces caramelizados y algunas frutas pasas y gran sensación de maderas secas empanadas en licores acabando con un suave amargo seco no muy intenso. Bastante buena, sabores intensos y buena sensación alcohólica. Para repetir sin duda.

Bottle from Cave a Bulles. Pours light copper with no head. Aroma of warm brown sugar. Neaar full bodied. Flavor is brown sugar, There’s something like dried stone fruits, and there is a subtle bourbon aspect. Not really getting any oak astringency tho. Fruit and bourbon seem to dominate the finish. Quite a nice sipper.
