Burgundy. Sourish, full bodied, complex and balsamic. An irresistable Flanders style red ale.

Refreshing, fruity taste, a bit sweet. The alcohol is well hidden; might be dangerous;-)

Huge, thick, longlasting head. Yeasty aroma with citrus and coriander. Fresh, crisp taste with an alcoholic kick. An Duvel-wannabe above avarage.

Easy to drink ale, despite of the alcohol content. And that is what you feel the next morning :-)

Nose is ok - wheat, pear, apple, hint of barnyard. The colour is a little dark for the style, but its the light palate, hint of plastic and cheese-like finish that really turns me off this beer.
2 years old:
Hazy copper-amber. Cheesy, woody, sourish aroma with port, figs and orange zest. The palate is plasticy still, with corn syrup, peach, perfume, dust, mildew...some dead yeast cells perhaps? Just maybe. In fact, this dead yeast thing really sends bizarre messages to my brain, like Karakalpak yurt felt. I've only been in one Karakalpak yurt and that was a display piece, not one that had been used, so why that jumped into my head I'll never know. But that's exactly the problem with this beer, whether fresh or with aging, it's just odd, and not in a good way. I don't want to drink a stiffly alcoholic yurt, you know what I mean? Vintage rating 2.4.
