Blind tasting at Papsø’s
Hazy amber color; small head. It has a very light aroma (sweet caramel, oily French Fries); the flavor is better, sweetish caramel, with Bourbon vanilla; there is a late sourness that doesn’t fit in. Too high bitterness. I guess they wanted to make a barrel aged Quadrupel, but it came out too chaotic.

Bottle, 75cl. Thx to Papsoe. It pours a clear, copper body under a beige head of moderate size. The aroma has canned fruits syrup, mostly peaches, with hops, alcohol and caramel as well. Sweet, syrupy flavor with alcohol, some spices and a phenolic touch. Full-bodied and warming. Long, warm, sweet finish. A rather nice beer, but on the sweet, syrupy side. It’s sort of like candy with alcohol. (090508)

Cask @ Ginger Man poured into an Imperial Pint (awesome!!). Has the agitated beer, bubbly with no substance small head that comes off a cask. But it has a beautiful hazy, glowing, orange-golden color. Aroma is bretty, lemony, and sour, mmm I like. Its very strong on the tangy, tart lemony brett, which reminds me a lot of young Canitllon lambic. Taste is not as strong but the lemony brett really kicks in at the end of the flavor. Its lightly drying and lots of tart, sweet-less miscellaneous berries sprinkled throughout. Definitely reminds of kegged young Cantillon gueze. Has that undercarbonated cask mouthfeel. I would really love to see the final product when these get blended and bottled in the future.

Last of the keg from the Anniversary Party. Pours with a huge khaki head over a hazed to murky amber body with sediment. Aroam is rich and has winter spices, sourness, bakery, persimmons, wood, and caramel. Taste is nice and tart, with vanilla oak, a decent amount of residual sweetness and a nice fruitiness. Lively carbonation with a dryish mouthfeel.

On tap at the Bruery. Vastly different than the Virgin Papier. Pours a dark hue which is a deep auburn, slightly clearer with a khaki head. Aroma of vanilla, cinnabun, light tannins, plum, prunes and banana. Taste is wood (nearly like a medical tongue depressor), whiskey, brandy, dark fruits, and a slight bitterness. Creamy carbonation and a full bodied mouthfeel.

On cask at the Bruery. Pours with a hint of head over a hazed golden body. Aroma is quite nice for a mead lover with florals, honey, eucalyptus, caramel, toffee and wood. Taste is awesome with a real presence of the barrel aged wheat wine and a nice herbal honey and butteryness. Alcohol is kept under control, but there is a light oxidation, although it doesn’t detract from the experience. Syrupy mouthfeel and very light carbonation...excellent braggot!

On tap at the Bruery. Pours with a small off-white head, over a hazed golden body. Aroma is phenolic with brett, spicy and full of bread. Taste is buttery and earthy with tons of brett and tripel spiciness. Quite different than the Thai Basil dominated regular trade winds... Maybe better, maybe worse. Dry mouthfeel, but refreshing.
