Wooden jar (stenen kruik) @ 77ships aftertasting after Billies 2018. Amber color, small off-white head. Smell and taste malts, somewhat boozy, caramelised sugars, some sharp edges so to speak. Unbalanced. Meh. 6-3-5-2-9 = 2.5. // Edit: better a day later. The sharp edges seem to have gone so it's much more drinkable. Would now rate it around a 3 a think.

Thanks to Benzai. 330 ml. bottle sampled post Billie’s Beer Festival Day 1. Amber orange. Nose is rubbish caramel, sugar, paint. Taste is overly chemical sweet plastic, caramel, crude boozy sugar & caramel, syrup. Very meh and not too good.

30/XI/18 - 50cl stone bottle @ post-Billie's Beer Festival Tasting (77ships' place), BBE: 2023 - (2018-1852) Thanks to Benzai for sharing the bottle!
Clear red brown beer, big creamy beige head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: banana, malty, caramel, dried fruits, more fruity notes, some dark chocolate. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: bitter start, then acidic, bit fruity, some caramel, lots of alcohol. Aftertaste: more alcohol, soft malty touch, hint of chocolate. Not very convincing.
