NONNIVERSAIRE, rewarded with multiple medals on international beer competitions!
A limited availability barley wine, brewed with 6 different malts, underwent primary fermentation with a typical abbey ale yeast. The second fermentation occurred with champagne yeast and then the beer was matured for 4,5 months on oak calvados barrels to deploy its intense and unique aromas.
After the aging process, it gots a third refermentation in the bottle, again with champagne yeast, for 2 months.
An excellent and unique digestive beer, perfect for sharing!
100% pure craft: unfiltered, unpasteurized, no trickery, nothing artificial...

16/X/15 - 50cl bottle from Bierhalle Deconinck (Vichte) @ home - BB: n/a, bottled: 5/IX/15 (2015-1495) Thanks to PriorL for sharing the bottle!
Clear amber to reddish brown beer, creamy beige small head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: dried fruits, spicy, sugary, bit sourish, infected? Also oxidized, spicy, some cloves. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: very sour, lemony, fruity and sweet notes. Aftertaste: some tannins, funky, bitter, oxidized, apples, more oxidation. I got a feeling the beer got broken through oxidation...
