(Tap sample @ MBCC 2017 Green Session, Copenhagen) Pours a pale red-brown with an off white head. Notes of caramel, dried herbs, cardamom, spicebox, mint, yeast, bread, vague fruit, a bit sweet with a moderate herbal bitterness in the fairly dry finish. Light to medium bodied, slightly fizzy carbonation. Yep, feels like Fernet, especially on the nose. Not really the most balanced though, creative but not totally drinkable.

Draft @ Beavertown Extravaganza'17. Cuivre, col crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme au bouquet finement malté, touche de fruits noirs avec un rétro plaisant de levure sauvage et effet de farmhouse. Petit plus pour un effet de notes botanique et herbacée. Petit rétro portant sur un rappel presque belge avec l'ajout d'effluves brett, le tout conservant un côté Fantôme. Palais est malté plaisant et léger, le tout brille par l'usage de diverses herbes/plantes, entre herbacé et fenouil, léger effet anisé avec une pointe fraiche de mentholé. Sec au palais, malté caramel, léger funk. Effet fruité de prune et une petite douceur sucre résiduelle. Côté menthe revient sur la fin et confère un fini très frais qui balance l'usage des malts.

Beaverfest. Medicine-esque aroma Herby. Darkest opaque brown. Thin off-white head. Bitter. The herby medicobie of the aroma is in there too. Light bodied. Watery. Flat. Abrupt finish OK. Gues the herbs add some interest but not that exciting.
