500ml bottle provided by Stefan for our Straight outta Blenheim+ session. Unclear, amber-gold body. Tiny bubbly white head. Fragile lacing. Malt-fruity nose, including sweet orange and apricot. Taste of grapefruit, pumpkin, and apricot added by caramel snapshots. Semi-dry, fruit hoppy ending with a nice bitterness to it. Full bodied. Enjoying stuff (Tromsø 30.07.2013)

Bottle from Erzbierschof, batch 117, bb 2/2014
Cloudy amber color, medium sized creamy head. The aroma is earthy, some manure, mildly pungent, light cream. Good mouthfeel, round and smooth; toffee flavor, quite sweet, with some crystal malt; strong character of oranges, some cedar, tangerine, very light frankincense; strong bitterness, a bit earthy and dirty. Maybe not as fresh as it should be.

On tap @ Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2013. A deep dark brown one with a small nearly non existing sidesticking brown top. Smells of brett and a it has a general sourness over it. Fruit sour almost with wood and red berries. Almost like a Flandern sour. That goes again in the taste. Lots of woody dry sourness, red berries and even traces of chocolate and cocoa. More cocoa than chocolate really. Light oily on the mouthfeel and about average on the carbonation. Lingering soft sourness in the drymouthing finish. Not bad and a bit untypical. 04.05.2013

500 ml bottle poured in to a snifter. Cloudy amber-golden with a dense, small white head. Fruity aroma with citrus, resin, grapefruits, exotic fruits and rich caramel malts. Taste is sweet. Medium to full body, slick feel, average carbonation. Finishes bitter and fruity with lots of hops - especially pines. Well made DIPA, lacks a bit compared with the effervescent hoppy freshness from HopWired. However, this is a heavier, malt centered beer.
