Bottle (!) from Beer 52 – drank at home. Pours a chazy pale straw with a sizeable but transient frothy white head and good lacing. There’s oats and lemon in the aroma plus a little yeastiness. In the mouth the initial impression is of the soft sweetness. A little bitter hoppiness comes through quite quickly though with flavours of tangerine, wheat and banana. Finish is slightly bitter. Not the sort of beer I normally go for, but this is quite nice.

Bottle from Beer52. Hazy dirty gold colour lasting white head. Grapefruit hoppy aroma. It's got a little pine resin. Decent bitterness on the finish. More a west coast ipa. Decent ipa I thought. Good grapefruit flavour

I recall when Troegs would delete the vintages for this yearly release. Now they’ve added it themselves!
Still a good beer, but not as brilliant as five/six years ago.

Large bottle. Poured a very deep, ruby red color, clear. Head was relatively small. Aroma was huge cherries. Less sweet than the regular version. Belgian yeast, some holiday spices - cinnamon, etc. Maybe a little bit of funk to it? Alcohol is really well masked.

Haven’t had this in five years. What a mistake. Cherries, tart, boozy. Out of the top drawer.

375ml bottle at share. Dark pour, ruby tinges. Mildly sour aroma, Belgiany, with nootes of winter spice. Taste is pit fruit, raisins and plums, some Falnders red qualities. Pretty nice.
