Tap @ de Molen. Cloudy light brown color, short head. Aroma is fruity of tangerine, hint of strawberry, milky, slight tart, lots of toffee and caramel. Soft sour flavor, lots of toffee and caramel again. Creamy mouthfeel. It drinks like sweet fruity dairy. Alcohol not noticeable at all. It’s a bit too sweet for my liking, wonder how the barley wine part develops with age, because it’s actually way too young. The Gose makes it dangerously drinkable though.

Tap @ de Molen. Dark color, medium lasting head. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, port wine, brown sugar, fruity notes, intense and complex. Taste is a perfect match of sweet and bitter, with lots of chocolat and roasted malt. Only a tiny bit of alcohol, far less than you would expect from a 20% Eisbock. Lovely drinker, palate lingers on. Stunning beer!

Bottled @ de Molen. Cloudy copper color, short head. Aroma has some hops, not as big as you mostly see. Probably they didnt use any backhopping. Hops are bit sweet fruity and grassy. Lots of caramel malt, some raisin. Very malty taste, quite sweet to back up the intense bitterness. It leans towards a barley wine. For a DIPA it’s not hoppy enough and for a barley wine it needs some age to develop the sweetness. Still a nice drink.
