Dark amber colour, white foam. Disappears quickly. Nose of stone fruit, oxidized hops, some honey and exotic fruits. Best before 2022 but it's full of old hops, nothing refreshing, more towards a barley wine.

22/X/19 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker), shared @ home, BB: II/2022 - (2019-1774)
Clear deep amber to rusty red brown beer, big fluffy aery yellow to almost beige head, irregular, stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: quite some chocolate, oxidized, dried fruits, bit malty, earthy notes. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty oxidized, malty, nice bitterness, bit hoppy, some dried fruits, sweet, some barley wine impression, definitely not an IPA, but it could pass for a hoppy American Barley Wine in a blind tasting, I guess... Aftertaste: sweet touch, caramel notes, dried fruits, very bitter, hoppy, bit resinous, medicinal in the finish, a little too bitter.

24 February 2019. Wieze Bierfestival - cheers to Meeki, Ama Deke & the lovely Anke! New Uitzet intended as a Tripel, but because it's dry-hopped they felt they had to put the label 'IPA' behind it. I don't think you can have both, though... Pours clear dark golden with a lasting, thin, frothy, off-white head; some lacing. Aroma of lemon peel, ripe mandarin, yellow grapefruit, apple & pear, pine, cheese, sweaty onion. Taste is medium hoppy bitter, notes of mandarin peel, yellow grapefruit & mango, sweetish notes of apple & pear, some sourish lime; more Tripel-like accents coming through in the form of estery banana, honey & white bread. Both aspects come together in the dryish, piney & grassy hoppy finish, subtle grapefruit peel, more bread, honey & grain and a dash of warming gin-like alcohol. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Somewhat a good blend between two genres, if ever that's possible, but why not do away with the Tripel bit and just make a Double IPA?
