Bottle. Vintage BB2006. Still Ok though! Frothy white good mostly lasting head. Yellow colour. Moderate malty and hoppy powerfull brett notes! Not intentional I think but fun and nice. Heavy bitter flavor. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily palate.

Bottle. Best before 2006. Nice head with good duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are brett, fruits, malt and hops. Off perhaps, but in a good way.

Bottled. A hazy yellow beer with a huge white head. The aroma is sweet a with light spicy hoppy note. The flavor has a weird spicy note with some coriander, leading to a dry bitter end. Not very pleasant - maybe because it is bottled conditioned.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a hazy, pilsener golden with an off-white head. Fresh, citrusy and very hoppy nose. Medium-bodied, lots of malt and a distinct alcoholic touch. Rather unusual smoked edge to it. Very dry and very bitter hoppiness in the finish. 160806
