Flesje gedeeld door Tomhendriksen tijdens proeverijtje. Roodbruin bier met weinig/zonder schuim. Aroma is rumachtig. Smaak is fruitig van rood fruit maar minder body dan verwacht. Smaak ebt snel weg.

Fles gedeeld met Inoven, Keukeman en Roelzie. Het is een helder donkerbruin bier met (inmiddels) weinig tot geen schuim. Het aroma is vol, rum achtig en een hint van druiven. De smaak is fruitig, zacht zoet met tonen van rozijnen en hout. Erg plat geworden.

Mild woody, red fruits and plums. Sweetish hints, not too deep. Wood, round, fruity and malt. Nice but not the best batch due to a bit too less depth. The white wine is (sadly) not there for me.

Sampled from 0.375 l bottle. Clear, dark reddish brown with a beige head. Sweetish-malty aroma of caramel, brown sugar, molasses, candied cherries and some oak. Very sweet, malty and slightly fruity taste of caramel, candied cherries, plums, vanilla and oak, followed by a medium long, slightly bitter, rather warming-alcoholic finish. Medium to full body, slightly oily mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice, but too sweet.

Bottle from ABS Drinks, Winksele. Hazy red/brown colour, no head. Almost no carbonation. Sweet nose of vanilla and bourbon. Also fruitiness ( red berries) and vinous notes. Well balanced. Bit alcoholic. Nice beer, aged well!

Bottle split at Leightons Cloud base, big thanks to Paulo for this ’R’ job, 05/05/15. Opaque mahogany brown with a decent beige covering. Nose is rich fruits, cake mix, spice, wood, sherry notes, dates, plums. Taste comprises rich fruit cake, dates, prunes, figs, wooded notes, spice, more sherrified notes. Full bodied, fine carbonation, lightly warming alcohol in the close. Decent offering but not top draw.
