Tap at Ammutsøn. Murky golden. Mint, peach, tart, fruity juicy. Light, not sweet, with a nice refreshing fruity tartness. Not much peach. But I like it.

Tap at Ammutsøn. Cloudy amber, white lace. Tart peach fuzz nose, nice dry tart entry, hay,, grainy sour notes, light cake, wild fruit notes in the finish. Pleasant.

A clear golden yellow beer with a big white head. Aroma of fresh grassy and floral hops, pale malt, melons. Taste of mild grainy pale malt, straw, floral and grassy hops, moderate bitterness.

Ermitage collaborating with a Brussels coffee roaster in this coffee stout; can from the Hopduvel in Ghent. Regular, quite thick and moussey, even-bubbled, dense, creamy, slowly thinning, pale greyish beige head on a black robe with waferthin hickory brown edges; a couple of patches of something unattractively solid, likely related to the coffee addition, stick to my glass in the end. Aroma of cold black coffee but somehow still less coffee-aromatic than expected, toasted brown bread, salmiak, Maggi, burnt walnuts, caramel, molasses, wet leather, dried blueberries, 'drop', Ersatz chocolate, unsugared chewing gum, reduced gravy, porcini. Sweetish onset with vague fruity notes of pear, apple and plum, surrounded by a layer of beef stock-ish umami and a 'deep', dim sourishness; softish carb, smooth mouthfeel made even smoother by the oatmeal. Oatmeal also shines through a bit in the middle, overwhelmed by a dry-caramelly, somewhat peanutty, Ersatz-chocolatey and toasty maltiness, 'deep and dark' as a stout ought to be with this sourish edge of 'old' coffee, but only then a 'green coffee bean'-like aspect appears, again much more so than actual roasted coffee bitterness - and the spicy coffee aromas I was hoping for. Do not get me wrong, this beer is full of coffee for sure, but it seems to have a more 'green' and plant-like character than I was expecting; it does, in the end, adequately performs its job in establishing a spicy end bitterness, aided by herbal hops and toasty malts. An umami accent, as in reduced gravy, yet flavoured with dried blueberries for sweetness, lingers beyond all this... Altogether enjoyable, 'moderately' but consistently coffee-flavoured oatmeal stout, even if I was, perhaps, expecting a bit more in view of the usual Ermitage standards.

(as Soleil, ABV 4.0%) Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso il frumento. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il colore è giallo dorato torbido. Il corpo è pieno. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di miele, frumento, frutta secca, agrumi, arancia, mandarino e spezie.

On tap. Pours a dull amber with little head. Aromas combine a faint barnyard and rose wine with a little wheat. Flavors combine both pulpy and musty grapes, with toasted malt and a hint of Belgian yeast. Overall fairly fruit with a little tartness. Interesting as more of a fruit wine cross.
