Tap at Bar Animal. Complex nose: bergamotte, bubblegum, lactic, horse blanket notes? Dark brown, big golden head. Roast, wood, lemon, bubblegum and berries, dry bretty notes, mint. Dry medium body, mellow mouthfeel. Leather and chocolate finish. Unusual, especially the bubblegum notes ( I guess from the spices?) but really well balanced and pleasant to drink

Tap at the Beer Temple, Amsterdam. Poured a dark brown with a reddish hue and a thin off white head. The aroma is acid citrus light sour. The flavour is medium sour light sweet with a rich dark malt fruity palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Really liked this. There was lots of flavour but nothing was overdone.
