While cones, needles and fresh maize shoots were mainly used in the previous vintages, this year tree resin was the main ingredient of the forest beer for the first time. The resin was obtained by hand from the spruce blockforest in the Traunstein forest district (Upper Austria).

Bottle. Dark gold with some small chunkies. Fat caramel/butterscotch nose. A bit old, but like a Madeira; smooth. I don't notice a lot of Fichte, but a lot of caramel malt most likely.

Leicht oxidierter, wässrig harziger Beginn. Süffig, dann Noten von Ananas, vollmundig, wenig hefig-kräutrig. Steigende Säure von geringem Level aus, weiter harzig. Interessant! 9/8/9/9/11/9

Kicsi, gyorsan elillanó hab, narancsba hajló félbarna szín. Enyhe, karamelles, fűszeres illat. Kissé savanykás, fanyar, fűszeres ízvilág. Közepesen testes, enyhén szénsavas és keserű. Kellemes, frissítő ital, a magas alkoholtartalmat egyáltalán nem érezni.

Beim Kauf des Bieres hatte ich schon Angst, dass das Bier einen holzien Stich haben könnte, was aber nicht der Fall ist. Ein harziger Duft und auch ein bisschen Geschmack nach Weihrauch. Dazu ein fruchtig-malziger Körper. EInwirklich interessantes und auch schmackhaftes Bier.

Bottle. Golden-orange color with eggshell head. Aroma is forest, caramel, resinous. Taste is the same, nicely balanced. High but soft carbonation. Nicely balanced, good, but I remember the Schwarzkiefer to be more "foresty"!
