400ml, draft.
Pours brown, with thin white head.
Nose is caramel, but not sweet. A bit malty. Flavor is also caramel, maybe nutty, a bit tart, with a smokey finish.
Quite a new and nice experience ^_^

Deep brown with a tall, firm tan head. Big sweet malt notes, burnt sugar, caramelized sugar, chewy toffee, dark fruits, milk chocolate. Full and thick mouth. Finish is sweet and long on the deeply caramelized sugars and toffee. Big and bold. Hides the booze well though you know it’s a powerhouse. Definitely sweet. A good one.

Good cream-coloured head over deep dark brown-red beer. Nutty, liquorice, fusels, (over)ripe banana. Red wine with liquorice, jap and old wine - strange combination - it works if only barely. Very rich, flavourfull, alcoholburn. Low to medium carbonation. Rich. La Pirata, change? Txs to Stef!

(Draft at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 1 March 2026) Dark reddish amber colour with brief beige head. Malty, vinous nose with notes of caramel, dried fruit, oak wood, syrup and brandy. Malty, vinous taste with caramel, syrup, dried fruit, raisins, figs, dates, oak wood, brandy and a mild spicy bitterness in a warming finish. Full body, quite sweet. Rich, tasty and quite warming. Great beer!
