Can shared at Wunder, courtesy of Markoijelena, thanks a lot bud! Semi clear goldenish copper pour with no head. Nose is obviously booze, apart from that there’s caramel, dried fruits and a spicy touch. Taste is warmingly sweet and boozy with notes of caramel, bread, spices and a touch of vanilla. The alcohol presence is undeniable, but it’s not as bad as I was prepared for.

Cannette 33cl de et partagée avec Tderoeck, merci. Canned 11/01/2021, BB 11/01/2023.
Dorée/orange, col fin blanc-cassé.
Arôme au bouquet très malté cara pâle, booze avec pas mal de douceur résiduelle. Je prends tout de même note d'un apport houblonné plaisant qui offre un relent d'amertume.
Palais est très américain dans l'approche, bien malté rappelant un effet un peu 'old school' des malt liquor et un côté Terrapin série Monster de l'époque. Fini collant aux lèvres, agrumes dans les houblons avec un côté orange sucrée.
In fine, trop sur l'alcool passe pour un style américain de 'malt liquor' - et le côté 'amazing' prend un coup dans l'aile.

Can from Deconinck. Clear orange, thinning, white head. Aroma of apple juice (on steroids), honey, plum, diluted marmalade, cheap fruit jenever, solvent. Taste has sweet apple (juice), plum & pear in a honey-malty body that is sugary, chemical, rubbery and solventy. Finishes with a still recognizable dash of floral hops but drowns in apple juice on steroids, chemical fruit candy, and heating fruit liqueur-like alcohol, bordering on wry, cheap vodka. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Damn, just feels like leftovers thrown together and then 'ice-distilled'. For shame, Uiltje!

Pours a dark yellow colour with low carbonation and no head. Initial unpleasant sulphur aroma. However it dissipates as the beer has a chance to 'breathe'. Next to that there's some bitter lime zest and sticky sweet lime marmalade. Very fine carbonation. It's almost like they ice bocked a strong IPA. Maybe an old, 'unsold due to COVID', batch of Dr Raptor? This is not bad at all.
