Bottle at home. Dark ruby-brown, clear, with a medium height tan head. Aroma includes citrus hops and some light pine resin. The taste follows the same notes, with some additional unripe mango, passion fruit, dark chocolate and subtle roasted malts. The beer has quite a harsh metallic and almost medicinal feel to it. Luckily no poo notes in this one.Later edit: actually, you can feel some weird off-notes when the beer gets just a little warmer

Bottle. Copper color. Aroma of malt, raisin and caramel toffee. Flavor is bittersweet, with caramel, pine, bitter hop, toffee, bitter raisin and a bitter dry finish. Bit simple, but allright.

Tap @ In De Wildeman, small size. Dark, but not quite black, clear. Frothy off white head. Aroma’s: boiled vegetables (that I find too often in beers from the Sallandse kettles), laurel/bay leaves, a bit droppy. Retronasal there’s laurel/bay leaves, drop, sweetness and boiled vegetables. Flavor is droppy, moderate bitter with light sweetness (licorice). Medium bodied. Finishes roasty and rather bitter. Nice, apart from the vegetables.

Draft at Arendsnest. Very dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma starts with poo before moving into more familiar BIPA territory of roast, grassy hops, dark chocolate and some fruity hops. Flavour is moderate sweet and above moderate bitter. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A shame about the poo, drinking this reminds me of 2 girls 1 cup. Not a good thing from a BIPA..

Almost clear deep amber beer, tidy pale tan head. Palate is airy and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Fluffy malts, some cereal sweetness. Mild toffee. Alcohol spice. Trace of dried fruits. Light dry spicy finish. Pretty simplistic.
