33 cl. bottle @ Kulminator // no clear indication of age but given the mould on the label & taste, it is probably not a recent one, I speculate that this is about 3 yrs old // hazy amber with a decent, solid off-white head // this has a very heavy yoghurt thing going on, on the nose, lots of yoghurt yeast, some barnyard & spices here as well // taste is dominated as well by yoghurt yeast, highly doubt that this was part of the original flavour profile, spices, Belgian yeast, bitter cloudberries, spices, touch barnyard & dash of booze in the back // carb. going touch softer, yoghurt yeast heavy body // agreable

33 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, BBE 05/2012
Sourish aroma has lots of elderflower and some other spices too. Dry flavour is rather spicy. A bit saison-like and bitter in a bad way. Drinkable but not very nice though.

(33cl bottle) Hazy, amber coloured hue with many nasty and ugly floaties and a mid-sized, slightly tanned foamy head. Sweet and yeasty, slightly toasted malty aroma with notes of candy and a vinous fruity touch. Light-sweet flavour with a tinge of acidity, light to medium bodied with a fizzy carbonation. Dusty-yeasty, minimal toasted malty and slightly fruity taste; finishes slightly fruity and fizzy with a touch of vinegar. Not a pleasure (23.III.09).

A cloudy amber ale with a thick creamy off white head, ith light floaties. Aroma of spices, thyme, coriander and fruits. In mouth, a tingly mouthfeel is noticed, with crisp dry sharp malt, herbal qualities, astringent, lots of alcohol for the style. Very yeasty. Bieropholie private imports, BB 30-12-2009.
