Side story:
Proliferation is a process we tend to dislike, because it follows its own course and we feel it should be kept under control when it comes too close. We prune thorn bushes, weed our gardens and kill parasites so they won't bother us anymore. But is our wish to be free of this proliferating growth not in fact the very same thing as our own desire to proliferate? To be in control, to have the highest word, to be seen everywhere and spread out tentacles so far and wide that we ourselves can no longer be subdued? Proliferation is part of being human. It also gives us free and easy access to herbs and their healing proportions, sweet blossoms and berries and offers refuge to wild animals. Proliferation of wild yeasts makes our beers what they are. With Doorn we shed light on conception and formation, the creative aspect that is part of proliferation.

Bottle shared thanks to Thijs. Bit hazy dark brown with short lasting beige head. Indeed a lot of blackberries, roasted malts, earthy, ash, soft funk, dry oak. Under medium sweet and sour, lighter bitter. Medium bodied.
