No head, almost clear, darker cognac-coloured beer. Nutty, walnuts, some chocolate, nut-chocolate wafers, faintly fusely. Cognac-like, old nuts, X-mas cake, whiskey. Must have been a large angels' part. Utterly undercarbonated, serious alcoholthinning, almost no alcoholburn. Not bad, but feels a bit tired. Moreover, I'm wondering a tad about the claimed ABV, certainly doesn't feel thàt hot. Solarti is Italian for sunny, but what in heavens does gevra means? Afrikaans? Txs to Stef!

Bottle from Stacks. Hazy amber-brown, thinning, off-white head. Aroma of Marsala, bourbon, sherry, pralines with liqueur, old milk chocolate, hazelnut oil, candied plum, date, 'kramiek', pecan pie, nail polish, apothecary. Taste has very sweet prune, date & ripe pear with a touch of banana in a hazelnutty, caramelly, slightly milk-chocolatey malt body; some spicy phenols. Soft herbal hops in the finish, quickly dominated by medicinal and dried fruit notes, woody vanilla and quite boozy bourbon & liqueur alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, flat carbonation. Just a tad too boozy but in itself a firm and structured malt-forward Barley Wine.
