750mL bottled Feb 9 2018, drunk 1/28/23. Clear, light amber, beige head, good retention. Easygoing brown bread, abbey-like yeast, red and purple fruits with just a touch of fruity and tart Brett. Very clean, well attenuated it appears. Belgian brune with date, raisin, brown bread and just a hint of fruity Brett. Pretty safe and straightforward but we'll done with good depth and attenuation.

Bottle with Munich Ratebeer Tasting group and consumed at Jonas's 2nd August 2022. Pours mid amber with an off white head. Soft moutheel, this has clearly softened over time, the Brett whilst still there is now a little calmer, it's like the older/wiser version of a boxer, that carefree, exciting aggressiveness has gone but the hits now are more measured, stylish and better appreciated. This is lovely, the base beer has been able to open up, this maybe a year or two past its best but it's fab'.

RBESG 19 Grand Tasting. Murky brown body, off white head. Tart, guess hoppy? berry aroma, caramelly (or clean?), some wood notes. Fresh wood-driven taste, quite interesting, some more fruity notes. My notes trail off... figured it was good but not great.
