50cl bottle at Belgian Beergeeks/Brewver summer tasting at Tim's house. Thanks Siegfried. Bottled 11/2020, BB 11/2035.
Couleur cuivre sur un léger voie, pas de col.
Arôme reprend un caractère Calvados et un effluve plus sur le caramel que la version 350. Malt pâle, grillé et des notes de fruits secs.
Palais reste faiblard au niveau effervescence, douceur résiduelle de la barrique, Calvados est présent et donne une bonne dimension en fin de bouche avec la fraicheur de barrique et ce côté frais acerbe de cidre mais avec le booze en plus.
In fine, assez similaire à la version 350 - les nuances sont subtiles et pas spécialement notables.

50cl bottle at Belgian Beergeeks/Brewver summer tasting at Tim's house. Thanks Siegfried.
Bottled 11/2020, BB 11/2035.
Cuivre, pas de col.
Arôme au nez boozy, belles notes de Calvados avec un léger rétro-nasal de sucre résiduel - garde une bonne base de malts.
Palais est assez plat en bouche, peu d'effervescence qui vient accentuer le caractère boozy. Calvados apporte une belle pointe de fraicheur, retrait sur le côté barley wine, caramel, léger grillé et qcq notes de fruits secs.

20 August 2022. At 12de Gents Bierfestival. Cheers to Anke, Pieter & the whole crew!
Hazy black, small, beige head. Aroma of mocha, vanilla cream, candied plum, pear, liquorice, sweetened fondant, dark fudge. Taste has sweet plum, fig & pear in a toasty, dark-chocolatey, fudge-like malt body with a soft umami soy edge. Herbal & peppery hoppy finish, chili burn kicking in and connecting with the bitter fondant and tobacco notes, remaining sweetish (dried fruits), warming whisky-like alcohol in the very end. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation. Rough but noteworthy chili Stout.

Tasty barley wine... (too) Sweet... Rum raisins, Aftertaste fades fast. Flat... Alcohol well hidden. Lacks character for such a big beer imho.
