Oakes Profile - Brewver

Doesn’t look like much…dull brown. No head. Sticky, mapley, sugars and alcohol. This was such a groundbreaking beer…it’s hard to conceptualize and I had Millenium. Molasses and oak. Refined, fuck. Awesome.

Speling van het Lot XIV.ii - Langste Nacht 2019 | Krieken En Kruiden op het Koelschip from Brouwerij 3 Fonteinen (Lot, Belgium 🇧🇪)

1 year ago

8/10 — Appearance 7 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5

Opaque, no head. Aroma has a touch of fruit, a touch of leather. On the palate, there’s mellow spice(maybe nutmeg & cardamom), light cherry, a bit of sweetness underpinning. Basically flat, letting the juiciness come through.
