Years are not like brothers. Years are like ocean waves whose true size cannot be assessed when gliding on them. In order to enjoy the majestic splendour of years and ocean waves one has to view them peacefully from a distance.

We divided this beer into two equal batches. The first part can be enjoyed fresh and the other will be matured for 10 years and will be on sale in 2027.

Timecapsule is a maibock, which carries aplenty notes from oloroso sherry casks. We expect this taste to be recognisable even in 10 years when all other tastes so typical to beer will be changed. We will see.

Amber colour, small off-white head. Aroma is fruity and even a bit glueish. Medlium-bodied. Malty, fruity, not very typical maibock with herbs, wood, sherry and pine. But even with pine flavour, this is not so bitter. Good beer but no idea to cellar till 2027. I don’t see much of ageing potential.

33cl bottle, bbe 23.01.28. Poured amber color with a thin white head. Dill, herbal like aroma, malts, floral notes. Flavor has herbal notes, dill, seaweed and malts. Mild perfumy, sherry notes in finish. Interesting to say the least.

On tap at Pudel, Tallinn. Clear deep golden to amber with a modest off-white head. Malty aroma with notes of caramel and dried fruits. Medium to moderate sweet with fairly low flavour intensity and a mild bitterness. Quite balanced and fairly enj.

Bottle, batch 1. BB 21.01.2028 (from UJH). Pours amber with beigish head. Aroma is sweet, caramel, booze, fruits, sweet raisins. Flavor is sweet and bitter, caramel, candy, malt, fruits, bit acidic, slight grainines. Finish has some dry slightly woody boozy kick with sugar. Body is on the lighter side. Overall: interesting, not very lagerish. PS: I agree with Phil & Marduk, the wax is stupid.
