Sampled from tap at CBF Vienna 2018. Hazy, dark reddish amber with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, off-white head. Sweetish, moderately yeasty-spicy and a bit fruity aroma of overripe banana, cloves and some whisky. Quite sweet, malty, slightly yeasty-spicy and a bit fruity taste of caramel, overripe banana, cloves, vanilla and a touch of raisins, followed by a medium long, moderately bitter, slightly yeasty-spicy and a bit woody finish. Medium to full body, almost creamy mouthfeel, average carbonation. Very nice!

Pours unclear, very dark brown with a copper glow to it. Small, rather pillowy head that fades rather fast. No lacing. Smell is bread (dark bread) wheat, whiskey, oak, More alcohol than i'd expect from a 7.6. Taste is sharp, wheat, colliding with an overly strong bourbon note ( that shows butteryness and charred oak, light smokyness, even ) hardly seems an all-natural barrel ageing product. It starts of rather nicely, than turns really bad ( to me, colliding, buttery, fishguts and smoke) but the ending is a bit better again... Hmm... not a fan of this one.

Thank you for sharing tderoeck & Filip. 330 ml. bottle sampled @ LIBF 2017. Brown amber. Nose is sweet fish guts, low sour, chemical plastic. Taste is sweet candy, raw dough, weird fish guts, cheap sugar, bourbon, plastic,… Plastic, sugar body. Quite a mess, not for me.
