It’s good I suppose comma the almost flat. Aroma is biscuits Brandy caramel, malt. Flavor’s sweet, dark bread dough and fruit. Would have helped a lot with a little carbonation. Very little Armagnac in the flavor.

Sampled at Zythos 2017. Thnx for sharing, Ruben and Tim ! Pours unclear blonde, not much head. Smell is a bit plastic-like dry. Some apples. Taste is apples, weird funk. Overripe, sour-ish touch. Taste is a little cider-like, really.

Clear pale blond appearance with no head. Aroma has lots of fruity and honey notes. Tastes quite thick and syrupy. The alcohol is balanced well by the sweetness.

Tap at Luppolo Station in Rome-Italy. Dark golden semi-clear pour, minimal foam. Nose: a bit acetic, really. Far too woody. Mouth: the barrel helped it a lot imo. Watery but with character. Wood and white wine. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle split at Craft Clerko thanks to Kenneth - the 4th from this series for me in less than 60 hours and the least impressive, 08/07/13. Hazy orange amber with a thin off white head which quickly dissipates to spotting. Nose is booze, bitter orange, dark fruit, woody tones, sour apricots. Taste comprises harsh booze, dark fruits, toffee, orange pith, oaky notes. Full bodied, fine carbonation, dry boozey warming alcohol in the finish. Drinkable but glad to be splitting this one with others! Alcohol is just too harsh and not well integrated.

Craft Clerkenwell tasting. Hazy amber beer, big fluffy pale cream coloured head. Light dry palate, mild carbonation. Alcohol dryness. Little dried fruits and surprisingly wishy washy brandy. Dry finish. This one feels a bit clumsy and not well joined up.
