Pours a deep mahogaby brown colour and a dense off white head with a small layer retention. Aroma's: sour, vinegar, red fruit, BT mossy yeast. Retronasal: a little sweet, light sour, a pinch of salt. Medium bodied. Finishes sourish and a little bit bitter. As with the first edition, it works in a weird way.

2 March 2022. At Hal 16 (Dok Brewing). Cheers to the Teamleader crew!
Clear brown, small, foamy, tan head. Aroma of cherry candy, burnt caramel, pear, red apple, dried banana, biscuit, liqueur. Taste has sweet pear & red apple, sourish cherry & malt vinegar somewhat, bit funky over a biscuity malt base. Herbal hoppy finish with tart red fruit, caramel & woody tannins, warming liqueur-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Bit of an odd brew but it works... in a way.

Bottle from advent calender. Clear mahogany with thick beige head. Looks good! Bready malts, dried plums, grapes, caramel. There's a touch of vinegar but it's not too present. Over medium sweet, light bitter and some lingering saltyness. Full bodied. I thought I might not like the vinegar, but it's quite OK. It's more the salt that's slightly too much but it's an interesting beer.
