Bottle. Holy cow, a 12% gose barleywine combo. Hazy ruby color, small tan head that had to be coaxed a bit. Aroma of vinous plums, vanilla, butterscotch. Taste is port wine, toffee, vanilla, brandy. Really interesting.

Bouteille 33cl, bottled on 15-04-2013. Yet another DM beer that disappoints and lingers in the sour/funk - borderline infected - twilight zone which as of late has become a DM trademark. S’ouvre sans aucun bruit, de couleur cuivrée avec aucun col. Visuellement pas intéressante. Arôme se marque juste pas ce bouquet barrique, boisé presque vanillé. Le rétro-nasal parvient à garder un léger côté minéral avec pas mal d’alcool au devant. Malté reste discret. Palais est for pétillant avec un palais funk aigre sur note de houblonnage à cru. Pointe minérale salée sur qcq soupçons de sucre brun. Malt au caractère pils cara et un résiduel boisé. Pointe collante aux lèvres. Côté pomme caramélisée, sur une touche douce vanillée, léger boisé rappelant le bourblon. L’un dans l’autre une bière décevante.

Bottle. Pours a clear orangish amber with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of sweet grains and caramel with oak and a touch of light tartness. Flavor has much more tartness a growing sweet grain note and backing oak barrels.

Almost clear deep amber - red beer. Tidy pale cream coloured head. Sweetish lactose on the nose. Creamy malt with nice mellow vanilla oak notes. Tangy dried fruits. Whiper of barrel induced paint. Finishes semi dry. The barrelling really suits this beer. Sweet and sour!

Small bubbly shortlasting head. Aroma is something in the direction of a sweet bourbon-ish barleywine, mild bourbon, oak, raisins, grass, sugar, caramel, honey, alcohol, paint, salt, grass. Taste is slightly sour-ish fruity, oak, citrus peel, dried dark fruits, vinegar, caramel, paint, almond essence, grass, citrus. Slightly dry mouthfeel. Nice, very interesting this one.
