Bottle from bierzwerg.de. Hazy deep amber color with medium white head. Seet malty aroma with alcohol and wood. Sweet malt, honey, dried fruits. To much on sweet side for me. Not bad, but there are much better beers from De Molen.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. Hazy amber to copper color, short slight off-white head. Aroma of soft oak and bourbon, vanilla and a hint of biscuit. Hint of spicyness, soft toast and caramel. Reminds me a lot of La Trappe Quad Oak Aged on bourbon, but just a little less complex in the nose. Soft sweet taste of caramel together with dry notes from the oak. A bit thin in body and a bit watery in taste. Finishes medium bitter and rather dry. I’m tempted to put it side by side with a Quad #12 (which is better because of lots more complexity btw).
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Nice reddish colour. Too much carbonation. Aroma of raisons and a little wkisky-like. Taste of caramell and some raisins. I don’t get any "barrel" in the taste.
