Bottle shared thanks to Deanso. Pours cloudy dull orange with a thick off white head. Aroma of grapefruit upfront as expected with light dough, citrus and light plastercine yeast notes. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and moderate to heavy bitter. Big grapefruit palate with some orange peel aspects. Light medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Double comparative tasting between version 1 with Caramunich 3, 150 EBC and version 2 Carafa spec 3 , 1500 EBC . Points are mentioned separately below, the above points are average from both. BBD are undecipherable on both stops. Version 1 Small yellow-beige head, fed by very fine pearling, beautiful clear foxy red-amber beer. 4/5 Rich sugary, syrupy, alcoholic nose; slight signs of oxydation. 8/10 Alcohol, sugars, very liqueurish character. Hops are very much in retreat; rich, lightly coloured malts, restsugars. 7/10 Burning backthroat feeling, heavy alcoholwarming. Rich, viscous feel 4/5 Typical strong BW, but nothing outlandish. 15/20 Version 2Quite thick yellow-cream head, leaving rings of lace over fine and lively carbonated clear, but deep chestnut-coloured beer. 4/5 Foxy, grapey nose, C-hops with lunaria, nectarines and in the background alcoholic sweetness. 9/10 Roasted, bitter flavours, bitter almonds with a flowery lining, hint at quinine. Gradually the sweetness wins it from the bitterness. 7/10 Alcoholwarmth, slowly but steadily growing. Very slick to viscous feel 3/5 Remakable nose, afterwards converting to more conventional BW features. 15/20

Fluffy, gradually darker beige head over black-redbrown beer. Islay malt jumping out of the glass,tarr, phenols. More Islay malt, tarr, etc,, but also a strange liquorice-like sweetness lurking underneath. Chocolate (black) in the finish. Wood & tannine, also very present in the MF. Slick, alcoholheat, viscous. Quite good - peathaters, wegblijven!

Small off-white rim; utterly muddy, (weak) tea-coloured beer; Hops, citrus - could be grapefruit, but also lemon/lime - rosehips. Very bitter, hopoils, tannines and another bitterness that indeed is as grapefruit (inner)peel. It might be suggestions, but I’m thinking (black) tea again - strong one, this time. Quite spritzy feel, slick but light body. Bitterness turns towards astringency. Quite serious IPA - not for those searching for half measures or mellowness!

Pours a slightly hazy orangey amber color, topped with a small froth off-white head. It quickly disappears. Very pleasant and palpable fruity aroma - sweet tropical fruits in there. Taste is gentle, slight sweetness at the start, fairly mild hoppy bitterness in the finish. Very nice and extra enjoyable.
