Bottle. Cloudy amber. Rosemary herbal nose, with some acidic tomato. Sparkly bitter hoppy in the beginning, and then there comes a warm slow wave of tea and earthy herbal and some sweetness, like from candy pieces in grey tea. Interesting - in a good way. Very calm, grounded. Yes, this is winter.

Bottle at the Christmas tasting. Hazy light brown, small head. Slightly herbal/winter foresty smelling nose. Tastes a bit sprucey if I must say so, nice smooth sour.

Bottle courtesy of Ursula, tasted with the München Ratebeer Group Christmas Tasting Friday 2nd December 2022. This looks like a barley wine in appearance, however it's super funky and tart, dry funky and zappy with a hint of winter (spice perhaps) very good.

Bottled. Hazy dark amber body, off-white head. Spicy aroma, rosemary and funk, orange, lovely, some maltiness. Lean, soft, fruity, peachy, sour, maybe light rosemary, but really interesting, the barrel gave it a lovely fruitiness really, some funk, minerally notes. Just works! Not a gruit tho. Definitely went from 3.9 to 4 in the morning as it mellowed out.
