330ml bottle. Sweet, oaky and stingy with some boozy port and sherry notes, some caramel and syrup. Not very pleasant, a bit harsh

(Bottle, 0.33 l - BB 21.10.2022, thanks VastActiv, at Arde, 20210123) The beer poured amber and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had wood, port wine, vanilla and booze. Palate was full bodied and warming with medium. Flavours were booze, wood, vineousness, vanilla and bitterness. Aftertaste was woody, boozy and bitter. Too much wood and booze, too little beer.

Geur wel erg lomp, smaak fantastisch. Heel zoet. Iets te lang gelegen.

Port, rozijnen, alcohol, barley wine. En de manier waarop lag ook wel in de lijn der verwachtingen: wat boozy en het basisbier is te licht (in kwaliteit) om het geheel wat extra cachet te geven. Niks mis mee, maar ik word niet van mijn sokken geblazen
