33 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, BBE 30.05.2013. Rated on 02.09.2011
Fruity aroma has apricot and hints of spice. Flavour has alcohol, strong apricot and it is somewhat spicy. Sinol‐like alcohol in the finish, but still the alco fits here somehow.

33 cl bottle @ Gastropub Tuulensuu, BBE 18.03.13
Sweet and perfume-like aroma, reminds me of an aged belgian ale. It has toffee, caramel, lots of candi sugar, spices and sweetish malt. Flavour has candi sugar, spices and some caramel. Some roastiness too. Alcohol-filled finish. Good belgian ale, but the alcohol disturbs a bit here.

Don’t like the color very much, again a hazy orange. Boerken was almost the same but I favor it slightly. Not a bad beer though.

Strong on alcohol, not a lot of body though. It’s a well drinkable beer. Liked the boerken better though.

Dark brown color, little red glow coming through. Full flavor, full body, nice bitterness, long aftertaste. Better than expected.

Nice brown colour. When you hold it in front of a good light source, there will be a nice red-ish colour shining through. Love that. Smells a bit malty. Nice taste. Quite heavy beer, but the mouthfeel is good.

8/05/2011 33cl bottle @ Zee-Zee (Blankenberge) - BB: 29/4/12 (2011-198)
Very cloudy orange to beige coloured beer, white creamy head. Aroma: hops, a bit of malts, bit fruity. MF: good carbon, full body. Taste: lots of hops, citrus fruits, even a touch of passion fruit. Just very fruity in general, but not sweet at all. Aftertaste: dry hops, pretty bitter, a bit of dairy, yeast maybe.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm) Dark reddish brown colour with brief, beige head. Malty nose with notes of dried fruit, caramel and dark cherries. Malty taste with caramel, dark bread, dried fruit, raisins, prunes and a bready, bittersweet finish. More than medium body, fairly dry. Well balanced and tasty. Very nice.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café Wallingatan, Stockholm) Golden amber colour with brief, white head. Fruity, malty nose with apricots, orange, mandarin and spicy hops. Fruity, malty taste with notes of apricots, orange, tropical fruit and a generous floral, citrussy, spicy bitterness in a warming finish. Almost full body, fairly sweet, with soft carbonation. Excellent balance makes it deceptively drinkable for its strength. Lovely triple with a grassy, citric, almost saison like character. Very nice.
