Bottle 0,33ltr: Very dark brown coloured brew with nice dry bitter taste. Hints of dried fruits and chocolate, must say marvelous beer despite its boring beer label.

Notes from October 2009 Post-It edition. 7/13/09 BB: December 08 Too long? I hope not. Once I take a hearty sip, the fatty wine glass quickly gets replaced by my everyday pint. It just drinks better. Inches of stiff cream-colored craters that take their time settling out. A sort of mahogany color. Cloudy, but so far pretty decently decanted. I can't hold off the sediment for long though. Macerated raisins, maple syrup, concord grape juice, & light resiny/herbal hops. Maple syrup, prune juice, cola, & smoke. Some muted earthy & rindy hops that linger. Hint of clove. A twinge of newspaper that is totally my fault for sitting on this. Full gulps of dark cherry. Barely a touch tart. A satisfied smile. Surprisingly less thick then I assumed it would be. Frothy, with moderate carbonation. Disturbed yeast makes it just a bit dirty. Alcohol is intertwined & never gets hot or isolated. This empty glass is just as heavy as some still full in my fridge. A very nice brew. :)

Bottle, 0.33l. Aroma of caramel, dried fruit, bread and yeast. Pours cloudy dark brown color with thin quickly diminishing light brown head, yeast residue and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts light to medium sweet caramelly, slightly burned and a bit grassy, following is dried fruity and yeasty with smooth mouthfeel and mild bitter finish. Full body, oily texture and soft carbonation in palate. Not too sweet & very drinkable despite its high ABV…

(Bottle, vintage 2019) Hazy golden amber colour with brief, bubbly head. Fruity nose with notes of red apples, dried apricots, orange, oak wood, almonds, cellar and barnyard. Fruity, tart taste with cloudberries, dried apricots, grapefruit peel, oak wood, almonds, sourdough bread and barnyard. Gentle citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Rich and tasty. The alcohol level brings some extra complexity to the lambic part of the beer. Very nice.
