2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20 fantti (440) - FINLAND - JAN 14, 2013
Hanasta juotu. Kaatuu lasiin punaruskeana ja kirkkaana vaahdon ollessa niukka. Haju on brettaisen tallinen, nahkainen, käynyt ja marjainen. Mieto maku on marjainen, maamainen ja nahkainen. Suutuntuma on kevyt ja hieman pistelevän hiilihappoinen. Kokonaisuutena tämä on tylsähkö ja yksipuolinen belgiale, todella kevyt ja särmätön tapaus. Ei jäänyt oikein mitenkään mieleen, lisää olisi kaivattu joka suhteessa.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 FatPhil (7494) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - NOV 6, 2012
Tap (Gallows Bird, Espoo, Kekri2012) (6:4:6:3:12)
Sweet slightly funky aroma. Smells doped, or fake. I.e. brew a beer, and bung in a brett-cube. I prefer my wild ales to be spontaneous fermentation, or at least subtle. Dose slip down very easily, no sign of 7%. Funnkiness is again a bit forced in the taste, as the sugars are quite high. Again, it tastes like they brewed a sweet beer and then threw a brett cube in. Smooth palate, but keggy carbonation. Clove-like numbing spicy finish. 3.1 feels like a bit of an over-rate.
