0.33 l bottle from 'Drinks & Gifts', 2020 vintage, cellared for over a year. Almost clear, very dark ruby with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently fruity aroma of molasses, lots of raisins, prunes, dark cherry, port, caramel, some marzipan and traces of licorice root. Rather sweet, malty, gently fruity and a little spicy taste of molasses, port, dark cherry, elderberry, prunes, caramel, some licorice root and a touch of marzipan, followed by a long, slightly bitter, a little spicy, rather boozy finish. Medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Complex, moreish brew, unfortunately rather boozy and a little thin. Not flawless but a nice sipper nevertheless.

Fles 1539 van 6000, gedeelt met Roelzie1986, het is een troebel donkerbruin bier met een rode gloed. Het heeft een volle beige schuim. Het aroma is port achtig en houtig. De smaak is fruitig, port achtig, zoet en houtig.

Bottle. Color: Very dark copper, beige head. Aroma: Sweet, port, fruity sweet red grapes, vinuous. Taste: Overwhelming sweet Port notes, some vanilla. Where is the base beer? Only some malt and some spices. Sweet vinuous notes, some wood. Light bitterness. Bit vinuous. Some tannins. Medium sweetness. Sticky. A bit disappointing, quite unbalanced and lacking complexity compared with Gulpener Gulle Tinus. I had higher expectations. Mwah.
Port overdose, bruine suiker, rozijn, dun... smaak is ok-ish

2020 bottle. Dark brown color. Vinous aroma with soft roast, caramel and vanilla. Thinnish. Malty sweet caramelly flavor with vanilla, roast and lots of porto. Not optimally balanced but quite tasty.
