Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 7
Orange-amber with flunky grey grey things floating around; thick, creamy head, yellowish. Oranges, ginger and Brett-like nose. Caramel, again citrus (orange) in the taste, roasted malts (sweeter in the beginning, but fast gone). Acidity in the palate. Fairly dry (I'm told even drier when young). Both acidity, alcohol and out-fermented sugars make the mouthfeel thinner than expected. Alcohol + acids give burning sensation. End of the bottle is Flunk with a little beer to make it liquid. Interesting and rare bee; well-worth looking for. Only one address: Bier Circus, Brussels as it was made specifically for their tenth anniversary.
