Canned (Feb 20th 2020), thx Fin & Loz for sharing with us! Lightly hazy lightly reddish amber body, almost no head. Caramel banana and wood notes, dried fruity, some orange candy. Lean, dry body, milk-caramelly, lightly oxidized, light orange, vaguely yeasty, bit warming. I mean... maybe a bit past its prime, has some interesting aspects, but eh.

(Bottle) Black colour with brief, frothy, pale brown head. Malty, roasted nose with dark chocolate, espresso, dark bread, soy sauce, vanilla, nuts and prunes. Malty, roasted, sweet taste with notes of dark chocolate, strong black coffee, dark bread, soy sauce, vanilla, liquorice, prunes, cinnamon and a generous cacao bitterness in the finish. Full body, sweet. Rich and tasty. Very nice.

Can from Beer Republic. Aroma is fairly heavy on the strawberries with some rhubarb and doughy malt. Flavour is sweeter than expected with a mild tartness. Body is medium. I would have liked more tartness and less sweetness.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is fruity hops with citrus, tropical notes, grass, pineapple, melon. Description states Sabro hop but I also get some Sorachi Ace, first time I notice the similarity. Flavour is moderate to medium bitter and lightly sweet. Medium body. Enjoyable.

Can 35,5 cl. Cloudy, opaque golden with a small, white head. Biscuity nose - very American, while the hops have a hard time leaving any impression aroma wise. Medium body, lightly sweet fruitiness and a dry and rather hoppy finish. 290125
