Caña en el lúpulo el 02-10-2014. Cuarto día de pinchado. Color rubio dorado algo translúcido con poca espuma, sabores a licor seco con maderas y ligero amargo final. Predominio de sensación seca licorosa y alcohólica, con un cuerpo medio de 10 vol con ligero paso por boca. Bien

Bottled at SBWF. Funky oaky nose with light citrus. Dryish with medium body and clean, spritzy mouthfeel. Gooseberry, brett and vanilla. Low bitterness. Interesting!

(Keg at Pipes of Scotland, Uppsala, 20140922) The beer poured brown and cloudy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had vanilla, wood, fruitiness and Belgian style yeast. Palate was medium bodied and dryish with medium carbonation. Flavours were vanilla, wood, caramel, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was woody, midly tart and bitter. Too much wood for me.

Bottle from Beer Shop, St Albans. Dark, dark brown. Surprisingly little head. Smell of American milk chocolate, liquorice, hazelnut: nicer than it sounds if somewhat artificial. Sweet taste, the star anise really comes through. Slightly sickly. Nice creamy palette with lots of tickly carbonation. Interesting stuff, very well made but a bit too clever for its own good.
