Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear, dark nutty brown with a small, beige head. Very greasy, unpleasant and unfresh aroma. Rich body, quite flat, very sweet caramelly maltiness with some unpleasant phenols and a harsh booziness. 210426

Second round for this beer, during the last tuesday at home. Again, the experience was positive, a smooth smocked beer with a side of smocked beech, not heavy, lovely side of toffee, a bit sweet, some hop, bottle coming from Amstein, 13.05.22.

Second round for a bottle coming from Amstein. Tasting this one yesterday with my wife. For me, it was a good experience, really smooth, smocked but it is not disgusted, nice touch of toffee, a bit sweet, some hop at the final, subtle, 05.10.22, at Epalinges.

Dark brown colour, small beige head. Smokey, smoke ham aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Mild smoked ham smokeyness, light maltyness, some hops. Watery finish. Tolerable. Could be more robust for 7% beer, now feels like 5.5%.
