Thank you kraddel! 330 ml. bottle sampled @ "Adam Chandler Visiting (for real this time)" Tasting. Likely 2016 Vintage. "Brewed for a local youth center in Peru." That is a pretty far commission, odd. Brewed with quinoa apparently. Hazy orange, little white head. Nose is stale rotting leaves, ditch water, thin, rotting, watery. Taste is watery, very oxidized, rotting, spoiled with leaves. Body is watery, rubbish, spoiled. Really bad, poor young Peruvians.

75cl bottle BB12-2011 Ambrée, col blanc. Arôme de houblon laissant un fin bouquet de citron, note de grains venant de la quinoa, le tout laissant une impression poussiéreuse/sèche, léger malt cara/pale. En bouche, grains et quinoa bien présent avec ce profile sec de grains concassé avec une pointe d’épice (levure et grains), note douce de sucre brun et malt caramel, pointe de levure belge avec en retrait un houblon qui donne un fini citronné moyennement amer et doux. Simple mais correcte, le quinoa se fait présent, et est pour moi, mieux représenté dans cette version que dans d’autres, dont celles de la br. Huygue.
