29 October 2021. Third Great Timternational Beer Geek Tasting. Cheers to the Ghent beer crew!
Clear red, no head. Aroma of red bell pepper, paprika, olive oil, cherry, raspberry, dark honey. Taste has sweet bell pepper, cherry, honey, some strawberry, gently spicy. Peppery finish with burning chili, smoky paprika but soothed by the sweet cherry. Heating alcohol still. Medium body, oily texture, flat carbonation. Very interesting, never tasted something like this before.

Clear, very pale golden, no head. Aroma of 'apothecary' (in the old-fashioned way), liquorice root, ginger, lemon peel, clove, apple, herbs, lime. Taste has sour apple, lemon & lime, bitterish herbs & spicy ginger. Tart, lemony finish, fruity yet medicinal. Medium body, slick texture, average carbonation. Slightly too odd and medicinal.

29/X/21 - 37.5cl bottle from Bierhalle Deconinck (Vichte), shared @ Third Great Timternational Beer Geek Tasting (Gent), BB: n/a (2021-1216)
Pretty clear red to red brown mead, no head. Aroma: meaty strt, funky, yeast, very weird, earthy. MF: no carbon, medium to full body. Taste: sweet and sugary start, lots of alcohol, nice chili burn, lots of honey, more chili, bit fruity, good stuff! Aftertaste: alcohol, sugary, soft smoky touch, fruity, cherry juicy, original flavours, nice chili burn, good stuff, very nice one!
