Bottle at home shared with friends at tasting. Clear dark amber color, small off-white to beige head. Aroma is malts, some kind of red fruit notes, wet leaves, a bit odd. Flavor is similar, with a light hint of tart-bitter. Thin body, a bit watery texture, average carbonation. Mwah.

Bottle no. 585. A dark brown beer, pours into the table, a head is quite big and beige. Aroma has stong dried fruitness, raisin, prune, light cognac. Taste has raisin, prune, light barrel, not too sweet. Almost full bodied. The fresh fruitness of normal Triple Impeeriale is lost. Tasteful, anyway.
LCI. Gusher! Balsamico, sour, yeasty, dark fruits

500ml bottle, No. 231 @ Christmas tasting in blackhaddock's beer cave. Pours deep dark brown, small off-white head. Aroma of Belgian candy sugar, gentle cognac influence. Flavour profile reveals a lovely deep sweet toffee character with a cloak of cognac adding a welcome depth. A lovely beer this.

Christmas Gathering, 18th December 2023. 5 guys at my gaff drinking beer and talking bollocks. 500ml bottle, number 231 of 952 produced. Dark brown and lush, wispy off-white head. The Cognac comes through loud and clear within the already lovely base beer, malty, rich and lovely.
Hapu, linnaseline, karamelline, nats vesine, õrn atsetoon. Ok.

500ml bottle. Heavy, malty and stingy woody with some earthiness, oak and green apples, hints of cognac. A bit stingy and unbalanced

(Bottle, 0.5 l - batch 2 - no 99, thanks VastActiv, at VastActiv, 20230105) The beer poured dark brown and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had malts, prunes, raisins, wood and rum. Palate was medium bodied and warming with medium carbonation. Flavours were malts, wood, alcohols, rum, raisins and bitterness. Aftertaste had raisins, booze and bitterness. A too boozy and too thin brew.
