330 ml. bottle @ Beerlovers Bar. I am sorry, I read some stuff on the website & I looked at the map, I just don’t get what the concept of this beer series is of which there will 30 iterations in total apparently. First one was bottled on 25-12-16. Very dark brown going to black, creamy tanned head. Nose is licorice, wine branches, herbal mocha, low wine syrup. Taste is herbal, grainy mocha, wine branches, chicory roots, herbal bitter licorice, wine grapes, herbal, bark. Quite Belgian in profile, bit all of the place, not the biggest fan of the huge licorice, chicory roots & wine grape syrup dominating, messy notes. Okay as an average Belgian Strong Ale. They clearly put a lot of time in the website, concept etc. if only it was easier to understand.

Thnx to Jeff ! Pours dark blonde, small white head. Smell instantly gives the barrels ( this is a blend of leviathan and kraken, but not 50/50 ) . Taste is very full The weird thing is, it starts of peated ( I just hate perated ) but even though it’s clearly, unmistakenably peat, I do kindof enjoy it at this dose. Than the sweetness of the brandy takes over and finishes the peat before it becomes to much. I actually quite like this ! One might agrue that the barrels taste too intense, but at the end of the day, when it’s good - it’s just good. A full, rich, powerfull tasteblend that works very well together, and far overpowers both ot the seperate editions.

At the launch event of the Series. Thnx Jef !!! Pours dark brown, good white head. Smell has some spices, some malts. Taste is dark malts, creamy, coffee, complex. I’d even think there is palm Sugar in this. Bit sweet. very nice balance, perfect carbonation. Përhaps a bit ’safe’ start here, but for sure a nice start.

06/01/2016 @home - 50cl bottle from Bierhalle Deconinck, Vichte. Clear amber colour, small fading head leaving a nice lacing. Nose is malts, banana, caramel, peat. Taste is malty, heat from the spices and some light spice taste as well, sweetness, banane, caramel, dry peated. Nice thick mouthfeel. All the tastes came a bit seperate from each other making it a nice tasting trip. Not at all easy drinking, sure in the beginning, even one of the hardest ones lately, but I didn’t mind at all, even enjoyed that a lot!

Flesje gedeeld door Joeren86 en gedronken met TomHendriksen en Benzai. Diep donkerbruin donkerbruin bier met weinig schuim. Aroma is zurig en ook de smaak is zuur. De zure smaak blijft wel even hangen.

Bottle 432/999. What's this?! Weird. Dry and peated to damnation. Spicyness. Maybe a bit too weird, but still quite good.
