Bouteille 75cl, no BB, big exploding cork. Brune foncée, col épais café au lait. Arôme offre de suite de fines effluves aigrelettes, fruits noirs, note de caramel brulé, sorte de sirop de Liège. Palais est malté, grillé, petite pointe aigrelette, fruits noirs; prunes et dates, rappel de vieille brune. Boisé reste assez modéré et pas certain que cet effet aigre était le fait attendu de la bière. Le tout reste cependant correcte et plaisant, petit effet mûre-cassis.

[9/22/16] Bottle sample at Pre-Borefts RateBeer Tasting at ABC Beers in Den Haag. Thanks everyone for sharing bottles! Dark brown with a beige head. Aroma of caramel, oak, wine, vinegar, dark fruits. Sweetish and tart flavor. Over-carbonated. Decent.

Bottle shared @ Borefts Pre-tasting. Insane GUSHER!!! Dark brown color, average sized off-white to beige head. Smell and taste malts, bread, wood, light tart. Annoying fizzy carbonation. Not very good.
