Magus, mõru, linnaseline, kuiv, kerge puuviljasus, nats alkot, riis? Täitsa huvitav, veidrad maitsed. Hea.

All the base notes of a Barley Wine with lots of malt and honey sweetness. Later some gentle sweet esters of over ripe orchard fruit. Dry finish with tannins and wood. Unique!

4/5 of lightly yellowish head, slowly retreating to give a bit more than one fifth of muddy, darker orange beer. Lactic acid, diary, some chocolate, cacaopowder, bark. Soured milk, soured chocolatedrink, coconut mat. Ovomaltine made with soured milk. Lactic acid. Hint at pastry/cake rind. Medium bodied, well-carbonated, slick to viscous. Almost overcarbonated, and not very balanced IMHO. Txs to Stef!

Bottle. Color: Clear orangish golden to orange amber, no head, Aroma: Malty, caramel, dried yellow fruit, sweetish. Taste: Sake, subtle dried yellow and dark fruit, bit boozy, umami, caramel notes, a bit oxidized. Sweetish start and dry bittery finish. Hard to descibe properly. Over medium body, no carbonation. Another surprising experiment from this brewery. Glad to have the chance to taste this beer. Interesting.

No head to speak of; clear cognac-coloured beer. Nose of sherry or sake, alcoholic alternative wines or beverages. Sweet sherry, rosewater, sake - and not the best quality - also sweet. Old pistacchio nougat. No carbonation, as mentionned; quite sticky. Flavours fall away a bit once tasted. Very interesting - mix of a non-alcoholic beverage with a strong beer. Unfortunately, not my cup of tea, sorry, sake at all. Txs to Stef!

13/XII/22 - 37.5cl bottle @ Commotie (Gent), BB: n/a (2022-1740)
Pretty cloudy orange blond beer, practically no head. Aroma: very yeasty, lots of (overripe) banana, sweet impression. MF: soft to no carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty sugary start, overripe banana, pretty funky, weird touch, very harsh bitterness. Aftertaste: caramel malts, pretty sweet, unpleasant bitterness, funky, ripe banana, bubble gum. Not a big fan.

Little cloudy orange blond beer, solid creamy white head, pretty stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: pretty dirty, unpleasant, sulphur notes, very yeasty. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet start, lots of overripe banana, sulphur, autolyse, slightly oxidized. Aftertaste: unpleasant bitterness, a bit dirty, way to yeasty, don’t like it.

Bottle at tasting. Clear at first but then a bit hazy after pouring in the second part of the bottle. Virtually no head. Aroma is odd...umami...soy sauce...salty perhaps? Reminds me of some kind of cleaning agent as well. Flavor is even weirder: sweet and salty combined. Don't get it. Really weird. Not my kind of beer for sure. Is it even beet?
