Near black colour. Thin head. Mellow dark fruits, hint of chocolate. Tart, light berry notes, touch of wood, and some darker chocolate accents. Ok, classic dark sour though and for some reason I struggle with those.

375ml bottle from The Gull (thx, Alex!) at Teekay. Batch #5. Appearance: very dark brown with a weak beige head Aroma: aroma is roasted malt, sourish, some chocolate and slight bourbon Taste: similar, bretts, quite dry, some ascorbic notes Overall: I would prefer this one to have a bit more of residual sugars and be less dry, but it's still pretty good.

Tolles Flaschendesign. Optisch pechschwarz, in der Nase brettig, Rotwein, Rosinen. Im Trunk sauer, leicht süß, reife Trauben. Mittig dann immer deutlicher röstig, schöne Wendung, dann kommt auch leicht das Whisky-Fass durch. Dabei echt gut trinkbar.

6/X/18 - 75cl bottle @ late RBBSG, Brouwerij Totem (Evergem), BB: n/a - (2018-1545) Thanks to 77ships for the trade!

Clear deep brown beer, small to no head. Aroma: lots and lots of chlorine, bit oxidized. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: lots of chlorine, very acidic, vinegar, roasted notes, metallic, unpleasant bitterness. Aftertaste: very roasted, unpleasant, bitter, sourish. Not a bad beer, but I don't like it much...

Bottle at Au Trappiste. Pours darkest brown. Aroma is oak, pinot noir, indeed some whisky, blooming flowers. Body is medium, strongly sour and tart, lots of fig and dark dried fruit. Lots of roasted malts in the body, yet rather in the background. Good!
