Sampled @ Bierfestival Oirschot 2025. Kind of bright reddish color, small beige head. Don't get anything in the aroma tbh. Flavor is lightly sourish red fruit and light tart. Not bad but not very interesting either. 8-6-7-7-6,5

Sampled @ Bierfestival Oirschot 2025. Autumnal reddish color, average sized beige head. Aroma is quite bland, but perhaps the beer is a little too cold. Flavor is malts, light raisins, caramel perhaps, but not distinctively. Plums, sweet notes. Full body, quite creamy light sticky texture, suitable soft carbonation. Nicely done barleywine. 8-8-8,5-9-8,5

Sampled @ Bierfestival Oirschot 2025. Golden color, medium sized white head. Aroma and flavor are, hmm, well, lightly smoky? Very weird. Bitter finish. I can't describe this properly. Drinkable though, not too bad in the end, for this style, but not my kind of beer. 7-6-6-7-6

Sampled @ Bierfestival Oirschot 2025. Opaque black color, medium sized brown colored head. Aroma is malts, roasted, coffee. Very nice. Flavor is similar, malts, chocolate malts, roasted malts, coffee notes, more chocolate and liquor influence, so I guess brandy. Solid bitterness too. Good medium to full body, suitable average carbonation. Heavy but good. 9-9-8,5-9-8,5
