(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of Grovlam. Pours a hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Very delicious tart and woody aroma. Quite full-bodied, a little low in carbonation, notes of overripe fruit, wood and sherry accents. Soft and smooth finish. Quite simply fantastic and one of the best beers I’ve had this year. 311008

Bottle. [Tasting session @ Papsoe, 31-10-2008] Average lovely off-white thick head that mostly lasted. Good display of lacework. Cloudy nutty color. Complexity was really striking with notes of almost Champagne mixed with strong notes of fruit and a surprisingly barnyard - woody like sour notes. Also wood, yeast and mild malt. Also peach and spice mixed in a lovely way. Unbelievable that this is 13 % alcohol. Full bodied with an average carbonation and somewhat dry woody and yet smooth texture. Heavy sweet flavor with mild sharp bitter notes. Lingering fruity and warming alcoholic finish.

Rating # 700. Bottle. Huge thanks to Pinball for sharing this. The beer poured hazy dark amber with long lasting beige head with great lacings. Very complex sweet spicy aroma with tons of malt and fruits. Banana and belgian yeast. Soft creamy body that made the flavours explode in your mouth. Lots of overripe fruit, sweet malt, spices, tons of fruit, cherry and some sour bite. The kind of beer you just want to take another sip of forever. Simply fantastic!

Bottle. High creamy off-white head. Absolutely pitch black body. Veneous lovely and sour spicy aroma with woody notes. Very mild and smooth creamy sour raisin vineous flavor, although the alcohol is evident. Low carbonation. Long aftertaste. Wow.

75cl, new exclusive brew Anno 2008, from De Hopduvel Gent, very complex strong brew, balanced, cloudy, small head, very good brew, but very expensive, the best of the Bush-range, top class!

UPDATED: OCT 4, 2009 ar:nice complex sourish, balanced , sweetness. very complex. flavor lots of impressions - perfectly balanced, great mouthfeel, very slight sourness from the cellaring, faint honey, flavor probably wont get better than this - plenty of everythng.

Botella. Yesty wood fruity alco pleasant aroma with a good bitterness. Big good lasting off-white head. Great sticky lacing. Very good filling mouthfeel. The flavour has a very good pleasant sweet bit tart frutiness with yeast, wood, good bitterness. Fruity bit tart yeasty soft finish. Really a good soft well filling in balance creamy Belgian strong ale though a bit too alcoholic. Huge thanks Pinball!

courtesy of Pascal Sauser - cloudy brown colour, little beige foam; very straight notes of wood; vinous and with a touch of vinegar; some astringence, sweet and full-bodied; acidic and quite aggressive; sweetish woody and malty caramleish aftertaste - deeply lacking of subtlety and without complicity between the beer and the cask; definitely needs some ageing

Deep orange-brown beer, smal brown-yellow head. Very woody/acetic nose, extremely vinous, raisins in balsamicovinegar. Sweeter, less acetic taste (unless in the finish, where alcohol- and acidburn walk together), raisins in balsamico. Chocolate int he aftertaste, as well as very soft mintlike flavour. Enormous alcoholwarming, very smooth alcoholy. Still 14% seems very heavy because of the acids. Terribly promising, vinous , this is going to be unbeatable in 1.5/2 years. Thanks, Dirk, for the first bottle in Flanders!
