Clavados BA version thnx to Seb. Pours black, no head. Smell is sweet-ish, roasty, chocolate. Milder coffee. Taste is full, sharp, roasty, some coffee. Booze. no carbonation, really. Calvados ( or shoudl I say Clavados ? ) is recognizable. Fairly drinklable, but too thin and sharp.

Bouteille 75cl de Malt Attacks - note that other bottles were removed from the market due to low carbonation defect - new batch will be released soon.
BB 12/2023.
Brune-ambre, pas de col, doré au verre, le tout s'ouvre sans un seul bruit;
Arôme au nez fin de barrique de Calva, rétro fin grillé-torréfié, petite touche de chocolat.
Palais est complètement plat - ce qui, de fait, enlève énormément de l'expérience. Retrouve un côté aigrelet en fin de bouche - peut être résidu du Calva et barrique.
Malt caramel, pâle, grillé, pointe de chocolat, rappel de barrel funk, note de fruits noirs - Calvados en retrait. Franchement déçu alors que la base de Whack est tjs sympa, mais là pour le prix c'est limite de la malhonnêteté.

7/III/20 - 75cl bottle @ 1st Official Brewver Meeting / Belgian Beer Geek Winter Gathering (2020), BB: XII/2020 (2020-213) Thanks to sebletitje for sharing the bottle!

Clear deep purple to red brown beer, no head. Aroma: malty, roasted, bit of a sourish impression, coffee notes. MF: no carbon, medium body. Taste: nice roast, lots of coffee, pretty oxidized, very bitter, green coffee, charcoal, rather unpleasant bitterness. Aftertaste: more oxidized, some green apples, bit of banana peel, very bitter, unpleasant finish.

T: medium to full body, chocolate, cocoa, light mellow fruity, apples touch, bit woody tannins, decent bitterness, relatively easy drinkable, quite nice, enjoyed for sure.
