dark amber to mahogany colour, medium sized beige-ish-yellowish off-white head; aroma of pine resins, peach, grapefruity-, floral-, herbal and roasted notes; taste is the same with significant roastedness, herbal-medicinal notes and bitterness; this is the beer, what I would be able to drink anywhere, anytime!

Bottle picked up from Beers and More in Zurich, consumed at Fischers Fritz Camping, Kirchner n. Zurich, Switzerland, Saturday 25th June 2016. Pours dark chestnut brown with a slight murk. It’s a hoppy little number with some dark candi sugar flavours also. A little vein of grapefruit tempered with some bitter cocoa, lovely beer that gets better. A7 A3 T7 P4 Ov14 3.5

33 cl bottle served in snifter. Pours cloudy dark liver brown, gray-ish tan head. Aroma is intense: first sweet scents, like molasses, honey and caramel, then bitter hoppy ones, like spruce, resin and pine cone. Temperature changes aroma a lot in this one. Taste is creamy, powerful and very bitter. Long lasting finish with hints of tobacco, dark chocolate and cedar. I’m pretty sure it’ll improve if cellared for a year or two.

Mahogany brown colour. Aroma is very fruity and malty. There’s some caramel and plenty of hop bitterness. Fruity background throughout.

Bottle @ LIBF’16. Shared with the RB Belgian team. I am assuming this is the Domus version which is listed at 11%. Cuivre, col fin beige. Arôme est malté, léger caramel, pointe herbacée, fruité en rétro laissant passer pas mal des houblons. Palais offre un côté houblonné agrumes et légèrement fruité avec un fini herbacé et une sorte d’IPA avec pas mal de malt caramel, crystal et Munich et une sensation de levure lager en retrait.

At a tasting, thanks, small bubbly creamy head, hazy cloudy lightish brown color, grainy slightly nutty aroma with hint of dark fruit, jammy fruity flavor with nuts andl light candy notes and caramel. Muddled brew.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Max. Clear amber to brown color. Aroma of malt, caramel, toast, faint hops. Sweet flavor with malt, caramel, light toastiness, and a bitter finish with light hops and an alcoholic note. Medium-bodied. Kinda OK, but not too hoppy and a bit too alcoholic.
