Draft sample @ Swafff '19. Orangé/ambré, col blanc-cassé. Arôme offre une douceur agréable de miel de châtaigne avec un petit rétro végétal, peut-être du potimarron, le tout parait trop jeune pour un barleywine. Le côté malté est plaisant quoique plus en retrait. Palais garde une petit douceur mielleuse marquée, une douceur de sucre résiduel perdure, l'effet attendu de houblon - amertume, dans ce cas, est quasi absent, et ce même pour un BW. L'ajout de potimarron donne peut-être une certaine rondeur végétale mais reste assez peu présent. Je pense que ce dernier reste difficile à marquer, comme dans les séries de Pumpkin beers, idéalement, faire grillé la courge avant pour en faire ressortir les sucres et le caramélisé. L’effervescence reste également assez faible. Le miel est ce qui me marque le plus.

I Draught /I Small disappearing cream head over muddy, foxy orange beer. Wood, oxydized grains and unmistakably sweet chestnut, old cookies. Sweet, more chestnut, and old, oxydized cookies, old books. Medium to better bodied, quite slick, another one feeling better carbonated but not looking the part. Chestnut typically gives a beer a flavour as if it is prematuraly aged. The pumpkin doesn't help...
