COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Un genre d’hybride bière/tawny/cognac... Des fruits, cerises, dattes, caramel et tout le pataclan sur une finale toute chaude d’alcool. Une gaterie à partager avec l’être cher.

For me the brewer, it’s not made to be an American Strong Ale or something else. It’s made to be a kind of barley based port-style with very little carbonation, just enought to protect it against oxydation.

Ungstrup (22906) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUL 8, 2007
Bottled. A deep red beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of over ripe fruits, and notes of alcohol, and malt. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and a lovely fruity note of both fresh and over ripe fruits, leading to a dry alcoholic finish. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Papsoe (21781) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - NOV 21, 2006
(Bottle 34,1 cl) Courtesy of Siroy. Pours a pretty, clear, dark orangey brown with a small, off-white head. Vinous aroma with notes of dried fruit. Full-bodied, sweetish body with loads of vinous accents and some raisins. Not much bitterness. Very interesting. 211006

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - APR 10, 2006
Bottled, thanks Rastacouere! Mahogany colour, near no head. Distinct port aroma. Sweet and full bodied with dense mouthfeel. Very vinous r brandy-like. Rich and elegant. Finishes with cherry-like fruitiness.

Oakes (9997) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - MAR 18, 2006
Golden-brown colour. Toffee, alcohol and crackerlike aromas. Sweet, brown sugar flavour with light molasses. Simple but tasty, and surprisingly not a lot of booziness.

hopscotch (7288) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - NOV 6, 2006
Bottle... TITW Part Deux... Clear, dark orange ale with a small, creamy, white head. Only slightly oxidized. Malty, fruity nose with vinous notes of sherry, red wine and ethanol. Toffee esters as well. No semblance of balance in the malty, fruity flavor. Sweet and boozy. Full-bodied with lively carbonation. Finishes sweet and warming. Thanks to kmweaver for his generosity!

Bov (7098) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - JUN 23, 2006
UPDATED: FEB 17, 2007 courtesy of Oakes - clear adrk brown colour with a very little foam; aroma of plum and pear; high carbonation, very thick and oily, strong sweetness before a long malty and plumy finish and a big warming alcohol kick - way too sweet ... et n’a pas convaincu l’être cher ...

hopdog (6943) - Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA - SEP 2, 2006
Bottle acquired in trade with MartinT (thanks!). Poured a medium mahogany color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of toffee, dark fruits, nuts, and light alcohol. Tastes of caramel, dark fruits, and had a brown sugary sweetness. Light alcohol in the finish (but not near the 12.5%).

JoeMcPhee (6834) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 8, 2006
Deep brown-orange beer with a thin white head. Big dark malty aroma, orange peel, toffee, chewy light molasses. Very aromatic, chewy toffeeish malts, brown sugar. Flavour is quite sweet, malt and cherry fruit. Well-hopped with herbal UK-style hops, orange peel flavour. Slightly hot and could probably use a bit of age. Still a tasty barleywine.
