Not bad, the gin is quite present but the base beer balances it out quite nicely.

From bottle @ volunteers meeting Borefts. Malty sweet flavor with soft roast, juniper. Gin barrel flavor. Nice beer, but thinnish and rather simple.

Bottle @ Brouwerij de Molen (volunteers gathering), thanks for sharing John & Petra! Pours a black colour with a beige head. Aroma's of gin spices, (pepper-) mint, after eight. Retronasal it's very minty, fruity, chocolate and a bit mossy. Flavour is moderate sweet, after eight, fruity. Medium bodied. Long finish. Interesting experiment, but not entirely convincing.
