Upon opening, huge UFO’s and other chunks getting agitatedly mad in the bottle; no gushing but all the same the glass gets filled with 4/5’s of dense white head, leaving shards of lace over unclear yellow beer with a greenish sheen. Very spicy (rosemary, sage, coriander,...) nose, sharpish, with citrus, chalk, dishwashing liquid, blossoms. Spicy and very faintly smoked or ashy; again citus (lemonsquash) in the background. Non-sweet lemoncookies with some weird dry spicing. Warming up, gets notably sweeter. Very spritzy, refreshing; slick, not very well-bodied. I can dig this. Tim, where the hell did you find all that smoke and rotting? Bad bottle, yours?

Light amber colour, off-white head, some big floaties (with the words of Joris P: UFO’s). Aroma of brett, funk, light fruity apricot. Funky flavour, tart, over-ripe fruit, light sulphur. Finish boiled egg, funk and sickly.
I’m not a big fan of the way this beer has developed. Where has the whisky gone?

9/X/2012 - 75cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent) @ Klaas' place - BB: n/a (2012-1123)
Clear bright yellow beer, big aery white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very smoky, overripe to rotten fruits, very nasty. MF: lots of carbon, light to medium body. Taste: bit sweet, grains, quite some smoke, overripe fruits, plums, little bitter, some overripe banana. Aftertaste: little bitter, smoky, some yeast, bit hoppy. Now I like smoked beers, let that be clear. But this one doesn't work for me AT ALL.

Renewed recipe, according to the label. 9.5% ABV
Dark brown colour, beige head, some UFOs. Aroma of coffee, sour touches, cinnamon, malts, apple, young wood (fresh twigs), bitter old coffee. Flavour of young wood, roasted coffee, coffee bitterness. Quite light body. Finish old coffee, with coffee bitterness.
Promising, but unfortunately not quite delivering yet.
