COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
English: This beer was a lovechild from start to finish. Born as a result of good times at Fanø Bryghus between a bunch of thirsty and ticking frenzy ratebeerians and the hospitable brewer family The Witter-Merrithews. The occasion was “Fanø Bryghus Slumber Party 2012” a really terrible excuse for a great barbecue, good beer, funny games, excellent company and….brewing a beer. The beer was developed as a joint venture with everybody allowed to join in. Then brewer FrumptyDumpty transformed the input into a functional recipe. Although brewed in the midst of the bright (well…) Danish summer we brewed a rich and potent beer for those darker days: a Belgian-style Quadrupel made with heather and rose hips. Contributors (one way or the other!): Brugmansia, Christian, Dedollewaitor, FrumptyDumpty, Papsoe, princesslala, Theis and thewolf.

FatPhil (7496) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - APR 18, 2013
500ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki)
Rich sweet stodgy mashy aroma. Dark brown, small head settles to a ring. Some berries in aroma later. More berries in retronasals, but alas some alcohol and double alas some nail-varnish remover. Very much all over the place no coherence at all. Plenty of christmas spices contribute not necessarily positively to the experience. At least they’re mellow rather than dominant. Alcohol and acetone never even think of subsiding, and this really does get worse with every sip. Expect the one-sip tickers to give this a high score, but for those of us who are drinking whole bottles, this is a chore. Downward spiral of experience reflected by the scores in turn, which do looka bit wonky.
