Mar 15, 2009 ’bout 33cl bottle shared with faroeviking.
amber , very small white head.
slightly sour aroma. sunburned beer, hoppy, barley wine’ish.
flavor is raisins, sugar, hops, syrup, sweet yet delicate.
the beer had no best before date printed anywhere, so i’ts anyone’s guess if it was fresh or not. brewer : please print a best before date. I might figure the date from the batch number, but that would be cumbersome when in a shopping situation.
