Bottle split in Craigs room, Borefts Day 2 after party tasting, 27/09/14 thanks to the person who brought this number. Lightly hazed orange with moderate off white spotting and edgework. Nose is citric peel, grainy, spice, caramel. Taste comprises tangy citrics, lemon zest, straw, light spice, orange squash. Medium bodied, spritzy and overcarbed, semi drying close. So so, not much going on certainly when you take the 8% ABV into account!

Bottle at the Room 118 tasting, Tulip Hotel Bodegraven, post BBF 6 day 1 26/09/14 thanks to whomever shared this one. Lightly hazed reddish amber with moderate beige edgeing. Nose is dark toffee, earthy, light spice, touch of smoke, dark berry fruits. Taste comprises sweet caramel, light metallics, dark fruit rinds, stoned fruit, dates. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with light warming booze. Ok quad.

Draft @ Hoppy Loft. Dorée, col léger blanc. Arôme de fruits fermentés allant sur un petit côté cidre, possible tanin? et un côté levure champenoise. Palais malt pâle pils, gardant ce côté très belge avec un alcool tout de suite réchauffant. Je continue de noter une impression rappelant pas mal le champenois à la méthode Deus Brut. Fini sec mais reste sans plus. Ok, mais on s’ennuie rapidement.

Bottle thnx to the Lady working for Jessenhofke at ACBC . Bottle was only a few days old when I got it , so refermentation was done by myself . Pours very clear blonde, good white head . Smell is malty ( pilsner comes to mind ) bit sweet, complex grainyness ( probably from the use of mixed malts ) . Little bitter hint . Taste is Bitter, some grassy, green hoppyness ( no IPA hopyness at all ) with a sweet, full bodied grainyness behind it . Ends rather dry . Hops give a complex taste to the beer . Bit fruity aspects . VERY well done , this one !

Original review text: sampled 75 cl. bottle @ Kersbierfestival 2011 – tried this for rarities sake (silly I know), apparently limited to 480 75 cl. bottles – my review for this is strangely brief (the fact that it follows a comment on my 3rd sample of Black Damnation XI might explain that :) – A: dark brown with a white head – taste is a mixture of caramel malts & spices, spices appear to be almost herbal & don’t quite blend, touch bitter Belgian hops in aftertaste which also don’t blend – so-so
