750 bottle obtained in a trade from Switzerland from Bov. Thanks for the great trade Bov! Bottle says that it is "just slightly bitter and very fruity". Beer poured dark amber, nearly brown clear body with a medium off white head. The aroma was slightly bitter with some sour tones as well. The taste is equally pleasing with bitterness on the tongue, some fruit notes, maybe peach. There is also a touch of pepper. There is also a woody character and a vinous quality to this beer as well. Another winner from BFM.

Trocken herber Antrunk, in dem sich der Hopfen im Hintergrund aufhält und so nur wenig aromatisch vorhanden ist. Im Verlauf wird der Hopfen noch unwichtiger und zeigt sich kaum noch, das Bier bleibt trocken und herb, sehr leicht säuerlich, fruchtig-getreidig. Geht in Ordnung, mein Lieblingsstil wird es aber nie werden. Vielen Dank an den Doppelbock für das Bier. 9/8/8/8/12/8

03/10 0.75 l bottle, courtesy of ogivlado and Marko, thanks for sharing! It poured darker hazy orange body with bigger head that went down slowly. Very nice aroma, overwhelming fruity malt, slightly biscuity with notes of spicy hops. Flavor was balanced between slightly bitter and a bit sour. Spicy for sure, with biscuit and fruit malt base, but generally very watery and thin which I disliked. Unidentified finish disappears from your mouth very soon. Fine, subtle, but if only had more body. Didn’t like it so much as my comrades did.

Bottled 750ml. -Trade with Allen (thanks Julian!), shared with Marko and heavy.
Bottle No.276. Murky dark orange/brown coloured, medium sized off-white head that went away slowly, malty spicy nose with notes of caramel. Moderate malty, fruity and yeasty with notes of spices and caramel. Also quite hoppy. Bitter and slight acidic finish and aftertaste. Interesting and very nice brew.

0.75l bottle from a trade with Allen I guess (thanks!). It said 276 as well so I doubt it’s the bottle number.
Poured a very dark orange-brown body with a big off white head that went away relatively slowly. Dusty, sweet malty and fruity nose, oranges and soap, nice peachy notes. Fresh malty, bit papery taste, dry and peachy, some fresh acidic hopiness, some yeast too A bit earthy. Papery finish. Very drinkable. A very nice beer and it’s good to try a BdG again!

Hazy amber with a medium off white head. Aroma had yeast, spices and fruity hops.Malty and yeasty flavor with spices and hoppy hints. Finished dry and yeasty.

Tasted blind. Bottled. A dark golden beer with a bit of sediment floating around under a lazing orangey head. The aroma has notes of straw, malt, and dusty hops as well as a bit of citrus. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, malt, citrus, and dusty hops as well as lighter notes of wood, leading to a tart finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle numbered 00276. Generous light tan frothy head. Light muddy orange-brown, hazy. Decent amount of hops still left in this one, bit of pine. Some caramel, faint whiff of funk. Barnyard shows up a little in the taste. Medium body that is a little slick. Not bad stuff.

Bottle. Weak fruity aroma. Cloudy dark amber colour. Good stable off-white head. Good refreshing Brett taste, nice white wine notes. Mild piney hop flavour, good in combination with the Brett. 838317
