Yellow-cream head over hazy amber beer with a mossy sheen. Rainwater, toffee, caramel, restsugars suggested in the nose. Bitter-vegetable, underlying caramel. Light to medium bodied, feels quite carbonated. Average.

Thank you for sharing! Sampled 500 ml. bottle @ Gents Bierfestival 2016. Dark fox red, off-white bubbles. Nose is dull paper, oxidation, cardboard, stale,… Taste is fizzy old paper, stale plaster, dough, insecticide, herbal, band-aid, old paper,… Body is paper, stale, plaster, insecticide, fizzy,… not a fan, I don’t get the appeal.

Clear reddish beer, small creamy beige head, pretty stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: weird, something bad, overripe to rotten fruits, medlar. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: weird bitterness, some banana, pretty bitter, tannins, sugary touch. Aftertaste: overripe fruits, malty, cow fodder, unpleasant bitterness.

Traditional old ale. Clean. Well made. Peppery in the finish. Good usage of UK hops. Nice work.

Pours a clear dark amber with a small creamy off-white head. Malty burnt caramel and fruitcake (brandy and fruit) aroma. Sweet malty beginning followed by burn’t brandy soaked raisins with a long mellow bitter finish. A very nice pint, I think I’ll have another.

Cask. Pours clear amber with a very small foamy head. Aroma is chocolate and toffee, with sweet malty undertones. Taste- very malt-forward, hints of milk chocolate, toffee, sugary raisins. Pretty good stuff overall.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - a lovely lava colour. A nice fluffy head. Nose - pancakes and syrup. Taste - wood and then syrup again. Bitter salad leaves. Then wood tannins return. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry woody tannic finish. Overall - gnarly but good.
