Bottle from Bierboetiek De Zythotheek, Valkenburg, consumed in a field at Fairports Annual Reunion Festival, Cropredy Friday 12th August 2016 Pours black in colour with hardly any head to speak of. Fruity and malty with a good dose of liquorice on the nose. Malty in the mouth, the considerable strength ensures that the oomph factor is high and there is an immediate warmth from the alcohol, though it doesn’t sidetrack matters. Choc, liquorice and a creamy oakiness. Its a very good beer. A7 A4 T8 P5 Ov15 3.9

Good resistant head, dark beige, over jet-black beer. Sour, whisky-like, as a whisky-sour indeed. Lactic acid, spruce. Light acidity in the mouth, lactic, sour cream, roast, whisky. Rich flavour - but absolutely doesn’t give a 16+% impression... Nice, even if it hasn’t % ABV. Thanks to Louis!
