Can at home. A bit hazy yellow color, medium sized white head. Aroma is malts, hops, a little over the top hoppy. Flavor has it too imo. It could also simply the hops used. Tastes a bit too sweet hoppy to me. Overripe melon. Hmm okay.

Can at home shared with Joen. Hazy pale yellow color, full sized white head. Aroma and flavor are lightly malts, very hoppy, tropical fruit hoppy without hysterical sweetness, actually there's a nice hoppy bitterness. Very nice and pleasant IPA.

Bottle shared with Johnny. Opaque black color, small brown colored head. Aroma is malts, dark malts, cognac clearly. Flavor is malts, again firm cognac again, light chocolate, cherries, cherry stone bitter. Malt bitterness. Very solid, perhaps a little too much cherry and cherry stone in the finish, but still quite nice.

Can shared by Johnny. Clear golden color, average sized white head. Aroma is incredible: superbly fresh and fresh hoppy. Flavor is lightly malts, hops, a tad sweetish, pineapple hoppy, distant resin. A bit thin texture, average body, decent carbonation. Love the aroma, flavor could have been better imo.

Bottle at home. Red brown color, medium to full sized tan head that lasts for quite a while. Aroma is sourish, oak / wood. Flavor has it too. Almost tastes like a flemish red/brown to me rather than like a bock. Bourbon BA? Nothing remains. Probably infected. Why would you even BBA a herfstbock? Stupid idea to begin with. Disappointing to say the least.
