Ik wil lekker in een warm bedje gaan liggen. Het bier is prima, maar nachtrust is heilig. Heftige tijden.

Can from The Beerhive. Clear dark brown body with a thin beige head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of blueberry, bramble and liquorice. Flavour of weak coffee, plum and wood. Medium body with a frothy mouthfeel. Soft fizz. This is such an easy drinking BIPA. Very nice.
