Bottle. Malty and farty aroma. Hazy brown colour, gets a little muddy towards the bottom. Small light brown head. Nicely sweet flavour, very malty with lots of dried fruits. Vinous, alcoholic notes as well. Very nice and complex beer. 6 3 9 4 19
Bottle, 12%. Sweet malty aroma, dried fruit. Cloudy red amber colour. Very sweet flavour, also quite sour. The alcohol does not show much, perhaps the nasties have ruined it all. Infected. x x x x x

Bottle. Malty aroma, brown sugar, slightly farty. Cloudy brown colour. Small stable light brown head. Sweetish flavour with a good sourness and hint of salt. Like a very mild Flemish sour. Slightly high carbonation. Good mouthfeel, creamy, when some of the excess CO2 is gone. Quite good and OK balanced.

Hazy amber, blanket head. Hop edge, youghurt and esters. Phenolic vanille aroma is the mainstay. Hides its strength. Medium body. Blands out.

A hazy dark amber beer with a fast disappearing orange head. The aroma i ssweet and a bit acidic with notes of prunes. The flavor is sweet malty, but also with a light acidic edge, combined with notes of caramel, leaidng to a dry spicy end. A terrible aroma, but an OK flavor.

An amber beer with no head. The aroma is of alcohol, stored fruits, prunes, and dusty hops. The flavor is sweet with notes of berries - especially cherries, as well as alcohol and prunes, leading to a slightly acidic and fruity end.
