Aus der Flasche (Vintage 2021) im 2022-04 getrunken. Dieses dunkelbraune Ale kommt neben dem Maluaroma mit einer deutlichen leicht nussigen Sherry-Aroma daher. Ein wunderbares, harmonisches Bier mit kräftigen Körper! Besonders das Barrel Aging ist hier sehr gelungen.

Bottle, 2021 edition which is aged in sherry casks for one year with a house microflora and then further aged in bottle for 45 weeks. Packaged nov 2019. Alcohol 12.5% according to the label. Color: Reddish copper, mocha head. Aroma: Sweetish and tart at the same time, dark fruit and grape, caramel, Sherry, almond. Taste: Medium sweet and light bitterness, malty, fruit cake, dried fruit (dark and yellow, like date, plum and apricot), dried concentrated grapes, sweetish Sherry, almond notes, hints of red fruit. A little boozy. Bit creamy and lightly warming mouthfeel. Brett notes, leathery hints. Over medium body, below average carbonation. Moderate to over moderate bitterness at fruity, lightly sirupy and dry-ish finish. Typical English, with a nice Sherry BA twist. Nice complexity.

Bottle. Nose is sherry, apple, hint of smoke, almonds, fruit cake, spice, vinious, funk, brett. Taste is light funk leading to sherry, fruit, sugar, sour note, malt, apple and redcurrant, touch of leather, hint of pastry, spice, brown sugar. The funk and tartness (which must be brett, I'd imagine) cut through what was presumably a very rich base beer wonderfully. Unexpectedly fantastic.

660ml bottle, thanks to Finn for sharing. Clingy lacing from a tan-coloured head. Amber-reddish body, near-clear. Smell of almond and ripe fruits. Dried fruity flavours, joined by almond promoting a sherry-like impression. Mid-dry malt-fruity ending, distant notes of tartness. Slow sipper qualities. Rating session with lmojoh and Finn. (Tromsø 08.09.2021).

Sløret rød brun med lyst beige skum som legger seg som ett slør. Aroma malt plomme karamell. Smak plomme malt sjokolade. Saftig og kraftig øl med fin fylde og lett bitterhet
