Tap at Winter Affair '25. Notes are brief. A bit of an everything burrito this one. What works in pudding is not always the best idea in beer. The beer character itself is kinda lost behind the myriad of flavourings. Feels messy. Pretty tasty though, and pretty good.

Tap at Winter Affair '25. Notes are brief. Pretty classic NEIPA, boring to me. Good, but not great.

Bottle from Pub-up-beershop, Wolvega. Aroma is spicy and roasty with dark malt, cinnamon, cold coffee, and a weird unpleasant touch of fertilizer. Flavour is sourish, mild sweet and light bitter. Lingering tartness/sourness. Body is medium. What a mess, sourness is unwelcome and the off-flavour is grating.
