Bottle. Cannot find BBD but I assume its not the freshest - was a last bottle on the shelf. Pours creamy and cloudy orange, thick foam head that has come to stay. Quite sturdy nose, lots of malty barleywine character, sweetish and some hints of overripe mango and tropical fruits, still some NZ hops in action. Taste is relatively rough, some sourish notes and lots of bitterness. Kind of harsh and unbalanced actually, rough drinking. Finish has its of lingering bitterness, herbal and really intense. Overall, I guess it is what it is, nose is the best part and everything else is unpolished and not the greatest.

50cl bottle from Sip, Tallinn. Pours slightly hazy deep amber with a lasting, off-white head. Fruity aroma with tropical fruits, citrus, caramel and hints of pine and herbs. Medium sweet with medium flavour intensity and a fairly strong bitterness. Feels quite balanced in the end anyway, at least the alcohol is well integrated. Fruity, powerful and rather tasty.

At a tasting, thanks, smallish bubbly head, light hazy dark orange color, aroma of green fruit with something jammy, muted biscuity malt flavor with pine, hint of grain in the back and a medium mellow shrubby bitterness. Nice but not too exciting.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Vova. Hazy orange with a white head. Aroma of fruity hops, tropical, overripe, a bit muted. Flavor has mild malt sweetness, and bitterish fruity hops. Medium-bodied. Decent.
