On draught at Bier Circus. I don’t like sweet beers, so I didn’t expect much from this one, but the owner Patrick talked me into it. Glad he did. Wonderful balance of sweet/sour, with great complexity. Tops the Cantillon Faro, which I had the night before. An incredible experience.

Hazy reddish amber colour. Some hints of toffee in the nose. Also some sweetness and sourness too. Not very special. Tasted at Pikkulintu.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Doppelganger (1383) - Dry County, Arkansas, USA - SEP 13, 2008
Bottle, from the BSF at the 2008 GBBF. Russet brown, fine off-white cap. Late autumn apple-sweet aroma, leaf piles, dusty leather chair. A bit of copper, clean wool socks, slightly off butter. More apple-butter flavor, gently sour and woody. Initially too sweet for my taste, but a few sips it seems to find its feet, and a fine cinnamon dryness outlines the edges nicely.

UPDATED: DEC 30, 2008 Bottle at Delirium Cafe, Gothenburg. A slightly hazy copper colored beer with a fingerthick off-white head. Lovely sourish, funky and mellow nose with some sugar. Nice, sugar-sweet, fruity and lemoney flavor. Quite carbonated, sweetish yet astringent mouthfeel, and a long, sweet finish with citrus flavors. Definiately a nice one. Rating: 7-4-6-3-14-3.4.

Bottle, 37.5cl corked. Pours an almost clear, orange-golden body under a minimal off-white head. Sour, yet sugary aroma with cellar and some cork. Quite sugary flavor with some sourness, cellar and cork. Flat and dry, and finishing with sourness, sweetness and an earthy flavor. It seems the cork have left some flavor and aroma in the beer, much more than I have noticed earlier, but still it is a nice and easy to drink beer. (080926)
