A tasteful treatment of cacao nibs and hand-processed vanilla beans lace the golden waves of this wheatwine-style ale with a subtle savoriness reminiscent of white chocolate. Notes of coconut, honey, caramel, and vanilla intertwine seamlessly in this bourbon barrel-aged treat.

29 October 2021. Third Great Timternational Beer Geek Tasting. Cheers to the Ghent beer crew!
Vintage 2020. Clear amber, thin, off-white head. Aroma has lots of green apple (acetaldehyde), bourbon, vanilla, pear, wood, 'Twix' bar, caramel, apricot. Taste has sweet apricot, date & green apple in a caramelly, honey-like, generally low chocolate-like malt body, touch of vanilla cream, bit spicy. Peppery hoppy finish, apple & apricot candy notes lingering as well as quite boozy bourbon alcohol. Medium to full body, thin oily texture, average carbonation. Feels young, thin, and somewhat besides the point. Disappointing.

As sometimes overbearing sweet this is, I love it nonetheless, we need more wheatwine in our lives, caramel vanilla cake, definitely white chocolate vibes on the nose and throughout.

Gekocht voor Ans. Ruikt vooral naar whisky en alcohol. Smaakt ook wel naar alcohol maar wel op een prettige manier. Zoet, alcohol, wat vanille, wat cacao, whisky, eikenhout, vleugje kokosnoot. Voor €14,- wel aan de prijs, maar voor een keer wel leuk.
