Bottle (6.0% ABV) at Earth, Carvoeiro. Hazy amber body with a thin off-white head. Steady carbonation. Aroma of red apple, raspberry vinegar and caramel. Flavour of marmalade and nectarine with a light hoppy finish. Medium body with a frothy texture. Soft fizz. Sweet and juicy.

Bottle from El Corte Ingles, Lisbon. Hazy amber with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, malty, caramel and light bretty. Flavor is medium sweet and light acidic. Dry and light acidic. No doubt this brett infection wasn’t intended, but it works well. 120116

Sampled @ Tilburg Bierfestival. Hazy rusty orange color, average sized off-white to beige head. Smell and taste malts, leaves, raisins, some iron. Average body and carbonation. Meh.

Sampled 330 ml. bottle @ Tilburgs Bierfestival 2015. Hazy amber, creamy white head. Nose is odd & very yeasty, way too much mold yeast in a BE fashion obscuring everything else. Taste is milky yeast dominating everything, stone fruit, bad yoghurt,… Pure yeast body,… Nope, this isn’t it. (Thanks for sharing!)

Amber to copper in colour. Some grass in the aroma. Hint of caramel in the background. Tastes a bit like an artificially sweet, malty lager.

Re-Rating (previous 4.4 - 4.4) Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 24C - amber). Bottle 33 cl - batch L01/20 (BBF 31/12/2021). AROMA: slight sweet aroma with an under attenuation character and slight solvent. high ester concentration. APPEARANCE: light amber color and slightly hazy. excessive ivory head with low retention. TASTE: mild malt sweetness with a caramel component resembling under attenuation. medium-low bitterness with a dry finish. faint solvent note. PALATE: low body with high carbonation. OVERALL: a poor amber biere de garde that lacks malt complexity.
