330ml bottle, kindly shared by Finn. Good looking in the glass with a deep mahogany coloured body, steady off-white head and crocheted lacing. Toffee-fruity nose, hints of yeast. The taste profile has got brittle caramel and some impact of stewed fruits. Warming end, with a solid dark malty and dried fruity twist. Pretty nice. (Tromsø 07.01.2020).

Gave fra Christophe. Delt med Rune på Nerstranda. Dyp mørk amber. Høyt luftig skum med litt farge. Daler veldig sakte. Eiekearoma. Silkemyk munnfølelse. Smaken harpiks & nøtter. Tørr avslutning.

Solid but pretty standard belgian blonde. Nicely fresh, and not too sweet, with something floral and some fruit present. Definitely nice enough to drink, but another boring example of the style.

Bottle from BIAB. It pours clear golden - yellow with a thick, foamy white head. The aroma is doughy, white bread, toasty grain, cereal, spice and plenty of apple. The taste is firmly dry, sweet, estery fruits, apple, melon, green banana, toasty grain, nougat, doughy bread and sponge cake with a slick, sweetish finish. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Decent. Not as sweet as I had feared. Alright.

750ml bottle bb 9/20. Clear reddish brown with a clotted cream head. Aroma is malty with dark sugars and dried fruit, bread, cherries, marzipan, brandy. Very rich but not that heavy with a creamy texture and lowish carbonation. Lots of dried fruit but not overwhelmingly sweet (maybe there's a little cherry sourness too), twiggy (more than oaky) with spicy bitterness at the end that really lifts it and makes it very drinkable. Definitely one I'd be looking for at least as fresh next time. Really good.
