Bottled:
Pours deep golden with a slight haze. Small head. Sourish, Geuze-like aroma with lime and lemon. Taste is sour and Geuze-like too with notes of lime and lemons. The after taste on the other hand is filled with dry and smoky peat.
Odd, but in a good way.

AIBF2016. Very hazy deep yellow pour with a frothy white head. Light berry fruit, smoke phenolic, barnyard and mineral nose. Sour fruity smokey taste. Dry tart mouthfeel. Weird smoke character but still quite nice.

750 ml green bottle, from Mikkeller Bottle Shop, Aarhus. ABV is 5%. Golden colour, only sightly hazy. Thin white head of poor retention. Weird but interesting aroma: farmhouse, crushed sea buckthorn berries with a hint of peated whisky. Very sour flavour, lemons and said berries, only a hint of whisky. Not worth the stiff price.
