12 April 2024. At Dulle Griet, Ghent. Cheers to Eduard & Maarten!
As "Vintage 2015, SR No. 2". Hazy dark amber, stable, foamy, tan head. Aroma of carré confiture, prune, fig, caramel, brown sugar, wet wood, brioche, oxidized apple. Taste has sweetish apple & fig over sourish blackcurrant & unripe plum wrapped into a malt body of brioche, caramel, almond & jam; oxidized notes all around and even a very slight salty 'prosciutto crudo' hint in the back. Dry, herbal hoppy finish, some tart plum, lingering oxidized fruit & wood. Medium body, thin-slick texture, average carbonation. Fairly old and light on the tongue, but held up surprisingly well.

Vintage 2015. Hazy dark amber colour, small frothy off-white head, mostly diminishing, almost no lacing. Aroma roasted malts, caramel, dried dark fruits, nutty, sourish notes. Taste opens soft sweet and bitter, followed by sourness, malty, toffee, fruity, with long duration. Dry sourish finish with mild sweet and bitter notes, bit woody, medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. A mix of Belgian styles and surprisingly well-balanced for that matter.
