Aroma: Big caramel, toffee. Almost barley wine aroma. Pretty strong. Appearance: Hazy with particles, head is thick and dense, sticking to glass. Taste: Again caramel is very strong but hops are showing up at the end of the process. very syrupy texture, like a barley wine. Hops are herbal and resinous. Flavors are good but limited to caramel, alcohol and hops. Mouth feel is round, velvety and syrupy.

Draught @ Moeder Lambic during the Stone vs Moeder Lambic event. Brown colour with a small white head. Smells wood, bourbon and sugar. Tastes peppers (hot and spicy), sweet and wood. Good carbo, medium body, but i do not like the burning mouthfeel.

Draught at Chez Moeder Lambic Fontainas during the three day Stone Event, 16-18 september 2011. Medium brown / amber color, small white head. Smell only slightly peppery, some hops and sweet or sugar. Decent taste at first, but too much pepper after a couple of seconds. Medium carbonation and body.

Draft @ Stone vs. Moeder event, Moder Lambic, Brussels. Gouté juste après la Crime. Couleur acajou, col beige. Arôme est donc de chipotle avec un malt caramel, côté épicé et dans tous les cas, ce profile de 2X Bastard qui renforce le profile. En bouche, bière épicée mais restant dans l’appréciable. Grade ce côté épais, malté, grains de la Double avec un fini, peut être dans la levure, de type belge. Houblon américain pour un fini réchauffant et épicé. Dans ce cas ci, l’épice ne dénature pas l’essence même de la Double Bastard, et je trouve la un traitement faisant un subtile usage de ce piment séché. Une belle intensité, mais assez pour ne pas détruire le palais.

draft@Stone vs. Moeder: dark amber-red with a small head, smells like spicy hop, slight yeast & spices, taste is hot chilli’s mixed bitter grapefruit hops, bitter hop first with a very hot aftertaste, light yeast with a light but clearly present caramel malt backbone, some pepper & spices first as well, the Chipotle hasn’t burned away all of the underlying beer’s taste yet, not as mouth-numbingly spicy as Crime - too bad :)

Draught Good, cream-coloured head, over ruby-red, faintly hazed beer. Aromatic, but also soapy nose, sweet, with USA hops and rosewater smell. Quite bitter, wry taste, then the peppers kick in, making it burning, and indifferent. Burning, fiery MF, getting it gradually unpalatable. Yes, I do not like red chilies in my beer.
