Bouteille 75cl à Belgian Summer Beer Gathering, merci Siegfried et pour le ‘vlaai’ qui allait avec.
BB 12/2030.
Cuivrée oscillant sur un léger ambre, qcq bulles beige mais pas tenace.
Un bon barley wine comme Kees sait les faire – pas mal de Bourbon, banane fudge, chocolat, caramel, douceur latente avec une sensation de cookie oreo – la sensation des 15% est d’autant plus présente que le tout reste assez faible en bouche.
