Cream-tan head, fast gone over viscously pouring brown-black beer. Whisky, roast, spirit, rubber, paint stripper, aldehyde. Sourish, chocolate cookies, exotic if sour fruit, green papaya. Again rubber and whisky. Acid- AND alcoholthinning and some -burn. Slick, bit of heat. Potent. We tasted it on 26/4/2025 as we couldn't wait until 2120, I'm afraid, as warranted on the label. Txs to Stef!

12 September 2024. At 1ste Kwatrechts Bierfestival. Cheers to Anke, Tim and the GBV crew!
Liquorice, cold coffee, prune, tobacco. Sweetish brambleberry, sourish blackcurrant, herbal liquorice. Earthy hops, coffee, herbal black tea, sourish coffee nib. Medium body. Quite okay with a sourish twist (or just a slightly bit infected?).
