Bottled, thanks Fukito! Very dark brown, cloudy, small head. Strong aroma of coffee and chestnut. Fairly sweet with medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Earthy and lightly smokey with notes of tobacco. Salty finish. Pleasant and rather complex.

Bottled at Untertürkheim, Buenos Aires. Upon opening the bottle a clear amber coloured beer hurries to overflow out of the bottle. Attempts to pour creates an enormous, lively head so the process requires a lot of patience, but once done the beer looks delicious. Interesting aroma of raspberry pie. Medium bodied with soft, gentle mouthfeel. Perfumy with balanced sweetness. With its low hop rate it relies solely on the malt and esters, making it a beer pretty much in a style of its own. FInishes with low bitterness.

Bottled at Cossab, Buenos Aires. Lightly hazy golden, rich head. Banana aroma. Sweet with rounded mouthfeel and near full body. Malty and spicy. Dominated by orange and cloves. In the end it tastes more like a hefeweizen than a abbey double, but it’s a damn fine hefeweizen.

Bottled, thanks Fukito! Brownish amber, very lively head. Roasty and lightly nutty. Light to medium bodied with somewhat soapy mouthfeel. Mildly malty, dominated by hazelnuts with some strawberries coming through. Salty bitterish finish. Rather simple, but definitely worthwile.

Bottled at Untertürkheim, Buenos Aires. Near black, small head. Very roasty with the vaguest citric touch. Medium bodied with clean mouthfeel. Velvetty roasty malt lures underneath a very shallow blanket of fizz. The bitterness is there, but doesn’t cry for attention.

Dark golden ale with a very thin white head. Fruity esters and acetone, nail polish remover, some pears. In mouth, solvent like esters, with notes of bananas and cardamom. Very thin, unidimensional and boring. At Cossab, shared with Fukito and Guillermo.
