Bügelverschlußflasche: "Milky" chestnut-amber coloured, no head to speak of; sweet, toasted-malty nose with an oaky tinge of vanilla; quite full sweet-bitter flavour, full bodied; sweet-oaky finish with a tinge of vanilla, again, and a light bitterness coming late. Not really superb, an artificially made "Barrique"ale is not the beer, the world really needs......

Mar 26, 2008 (swing top bottle, courtesy of Papsoe) Cloudy, chestnut-brown colour with a short off-white creamy layer. Sweet and heavily oaky malty nose with notes of vanilla and alcohol. Slightly sugary, sweet flavour, full bodied with a soft carbonation. Toast malty and way too oaky taste with caramel, vanilla and shy fruity traces; finishes sweet and bitter with loads of oak flavours, vanilla and alcohol. Surely interesting, but I don´t need beers (nor wines) flavoured with oak chips (26.03.08).

Pours a hazy/lightly muddy red-brown. A small film head. Aroma is oaky, sweet, caramel and quite vinious. Low carbonation. Flavour is okay rounded, lots of oak, toffee and viniousness. Fine, but rather unbalanced.
