Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is smoke, malt, caramel, herbal earl grey tea, hops, with some resinous notes. Flavour is above moderate sweet and bitter. Body is medium. Interesting beer, not entirely sold on the combination of smoke + tea + hops in the sense that I won't be drinking this regularly, but not bad at all.

Bottle. Copper colour, small foamy slightly off-white head. Aroma is tea, some tar, smoke and mild sweet caramel malts. Flavour is quite much the same, but has some mild floral hoppiness too, which kind of clashes with the smoked tones.

Tap @ Borefts 2017. Golden color. Hints of smoke and bergamot in the aroma. Malty yet dry flavor with bergamot. Not bad at all.

Light beige bubbly head grew & grew in a very active mahogany coloured body. Oak & tea aroma - smells like a church riddled with damp! Medium bodied, highly effervescent on the palate with a clean finish. Bacon, smoked, damp, rot, wood & church tastes with herbs & tobacco. Tastes like a wet ash tray.

0.33 l bottle from 'Rudat', bottled in September 2017. Clear, very dark reddish amber with a massive, frothy, stable, off-white head. Sweetish, malty, fairly smoky, gently fruity, slightly resiny and a bit herbal aroma of smoked ham, ice tea, peach, mango and some salt. Moderately sweet, quite smoky, rather fruity, gently resiny and just a little herbal taste of mango, peach, ice tea, smoked ham and a touch of pine, followed by a medium long, quite bitter, fairly smoky and a little herbal finish. Medium body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Very nice smoked IPA, especially with the age of a whole year, don't get much of the Earl Grey though.

Very interesting beer, not too heavy on the Earl Grey notes, more smoky. The mix of smoke with fruit is peculiar. Thanks Edo!
