Bottle from Stacks. Hazy dark amber, small, foamy, tan head. Aroma of rum-soaked raisin, date, Maraschino cherry, marzipan, liqueur, wet wood, clove, chewing gum. Taste has very sweet raisin, date & pear in a syrupy, brioche-like, caramelly malt body, some phenolic clove. Mild herbal hops in the finish, which is dominated by dried fruits, a touch of wood and quite boozy liqueur- or brandy-like alcohol; tequila might be there but not recognisably so for me. Medium to full body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Another enjoyable "BB BA", but with a slightly cruder profile.

11 - 14 July. Holiday retreat at Laon. Cheers! Bottle from the brewery. Bottled: 09/2022. Hazy yellow, small, frothy, white head. Aroma of gooseberry, overripe plum, apricot, lime, sourdough, hay, cheese. Taste has sour plum, gooseberry & grape in a sourdough-like malt body, surrounded by funky hay & cheese notes. Tart, bretty & woody, plum pit-like finish. Medium body, moussy texture, average carbonation. Gentle, yet rounded fruity Sour Ale.

Can from Stacks. Canned: 22/04/2025.
Hazy bright yellow, stable, foamy, white head. Intense aroma of fresh peach, papaya, pineapple, melon, moist white pepper, garlic, shallot, sherbet, yellow grapefruit, dough, cheese rind, tripel sec. Taste has sweet peach, pineapple & lychee, turning towards bittersweet orange peel, dank shallot and spicy white pepper in a doughy, slightly sherbetty malt body. Very bitter finish offering notes of grapefruit, juicy citrus, floral & peppery hops, leading to a hop burn reminiscent of raw garlic even, and some warming gin-like alcohol. Full body, fluffy texture, soft carbonation. Very complex and intense, especially towards the finish, but never out of balance. This DIPA has it all.
