MBison (548) - Southern Highlands, - JUN 25, 2009
Bottle (750ml). Aged roughly 1 year piror to tasting. Poured fizzy burnt copper with a tiny, frothy, off-white head which was fully diminishing. A woody aroma with toffee malts, burnt sugar, figs, preserved plums, toffee apple sweets and hints of varnish. Flavor was a tangy acidic bitterness with sweet bready malts, strong notes of lemon citrus, zesty oranges, dry pears, crisp apples, caramelized figs and some good woody notes. Medium bodied with lively carbonation, a dry mouthfeel, thick texture and a decent length finish.

Dedollewaitor (12378) - Odense, DENMARK - MAY 25, 2013
Bottle. Thanks to Mads T. BB May 2013. Pours dark ruby amber with a small white head. Nose is very malty. Rich toffee, caramel and bread. Some dark fruit. Smooth and full bodied. Delicious and complex Biere De Garde. One of the nicer ones ive had.

larsga (5364) - Oslo, NORWAY - JAN 13, 2013
Medium beige head. Hazy deep brown body with carbonation and visible particles. Funky earthy roasty aroma with licorice and spice notes. Dry-acidic earthy wooden taste with vomit notes. Thin-bodied. Slightly sharp mouthfeel from the acid, with some heat. Sour, roasty earthy honeyish aftertaste lingers for a long time. This must be infected, because they can’t possibly have meant for it to taste like this. Awful. (0.75l bottle, from Kihoskh, Copenhagen.)

Aroma of spicy malt. Flavour of toffee with a touch of pepper and spice in the aftertaste. Smooth, slightly oily palate flattened the flavour profile. OK, but not my favourite from this brewer.
