Bottle drunk re-watching Stranger Things 3 to prepare for the final season. Medium brown, small head that returns when swirling. Bananas, bready yeast, caramel biscuit nose. Very smooth rich flavor. Not too alcoholic hot, not too sweet, nice hop balance. That's an excellent barrel aging right there!

Bottle at home shared with Laura. Opaque dark brown to black color, medium sized off-white to beige head. Aroma and flavor are malts, light cognac at first, heavier thereafter, dark raisins. Quite nice.

Fles gedeeld door met Mimi, Roel, Rik, Tessa en Guus. Het is een diep donkerbruin bier met een dun schuim. Het heeft een aroma van gebrande mout en cognac. De smaak is vol fruitig, zacht zoet met tonen van cognac.

(Draught at Craft & Draft, Amsterdam, 16 Feb 2024) Dark brown colour, almost black, with foamy beige head. Malty, vinous nose with notes of caramel, oak wood, cognac and raisins. Malty, vinous taste with caramel, dried fruit, raisins, prunes, oak wood, cognac and a mild spicy bitterness in a warming, boozy finish. Full body, quite sweet. Rich, warming and tasty. Very nice.
