Fles geprobeerd op vakantie met LiekevdV. Het is een diep donkerbruin bier met een beige schuim. Het aroma is gebrand en wat fruitig. De smaak is gebrand met tonen van drop en zoethout.

Fles 33cl thuis. Rood fruit, spelt, fruitig, flink koolzuur, kruidig, zoetig, maltig, caramel, haver. Red ale. (22-2-2020).

Bottle. Dark brown color. Caramel and soft yeasty floral notes in the aroma. Malty sweet flavor, flora, soft roast and caramel. Quite decent, but not stunning.

Shared by Craftmember, cheers! Multi-grain beer occasionally made for archeological excavations in Dalfsen. Very violent gusher, we lost 1/3 of the bottle upon even careful opening. Very thick and rocky, creamy, tightly papery lacing, bubbly head, pale yellow beige in colour; dark chestnut brown robe with bronze hue, cloudy. Aroma of moldy walnut shells, soggy spelt bread, caramel, fenugreek seed, dry earth, tree leaves, cocoa powder, ginger, fresh fig, dried plum, herb cheese, tawny port, redcurrant, toast. Evidently very spritzy onset, lots of dried fruit, raisin, dried blue prunes, only very subduedly sweetish, deeply situated sourishness not unlike dried blueberry but more ’dim’, some subtle apple peel touch, carbonation settling down after a while resulting in a softer, more rounded mouthfeel. Spicy spelt and subtly sweetish oat are clearly represented in the middle, embedded in a soft, round, toffeeish and pleasantly bready barley malt sweetness. Sourish aspects keep lingering at the back, probably mostly due to the spelt, along with spicy phenolic accents and a dash of herbal, earthy hop bitterness. Too bad for the rather dramatic and uncontrollable gushing (and initial overcarbonation resulting from it), but in itself a correct and balanced beer.
