Bottle 75 cl. Called “Buffalo Grand Cru Barrel aged beer” at 10% ABV. Vintage 2016, Bottle # 00188. Pours an opaque, dark brown with a lacing, beige head. Woody nose, some balsamico if not overly acetic. Medium body, dry and woody, some tannins, faint nuttiness paired with dark, dried fruits. We’re in Flanders Red territory if not as complex as the best in the style. 241223

Den siste på Tap1 2014 fredag kveld: fatlagret stout med mye vanilje, rosin, sjokolade og litt solbær/bjørnebær. Stor munnfylde, naturligvis. Uhyre velbalansert, og det er nå på tide å gå hjem mens man ennå er noenlunde i balanse selv.

Bouteille @ 4de Gentse Bierfestival. Brune foncée, col blanc léger. Arôme est agréablement bien boisé avec un beau bouquet de chêne, le malt reste léger grillé et caramel avec une signature très belge. Palais est malté caramel, grillé, pointe de chocolat, boisé blanc avec une petite note de vin blanc tirant sur le Chardonnay. Les 9% restent très discrets pour une bière qui offre complexité tout en restant légère.

75 cl. bottle sampled @ GBF 2013. Appearance is black with a mocha head. Nose is chocolate, sweetish, coffee, malt with a nice sourish wine tang. Taste is sweet vinous, red wine mixed with chocolate, coffee, malts, oak, caramel, great red wine profile. Creamy body, really, really nice. Thx! to the RB Crew for sharing.
