Bottled. A hazy amber beer with no head. The aroma has notes of wood, fruit, and heather, as well as light smokey notes. The flavor is sweet and very smokey, combined with notes of over ripe peaches, leading to a dry and rather bitter finish. The body is powerful and the alcohol burns slightly in the throat. Very interesting - very complex.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of pineypower. Pours a hazy, amber golden with a basically absent head. Odd chemical or herbal AND smoked aroma. Medium body, completely flat with herbal accents, acidic and smoked. I detect ginger and perhaps some licorice and citrus. Very odd and flawed and pointing in all directions. But interesting at least. 100507

A nice opportunity to sample this rarity! Thanks Henrik. A headless pale copper pour. Very phenolic aroma has a both a strong yeasty and spicy feel to it. Initially taking a certain leathery, softly apricot touched smoky path, but the advancing oxidation and flatness dull everything out and replaces with a very sweet, yet rather astringent woodiness that pairs with the juicy oranges to feel both tart and incoherent. Citrusy and floral, minty.. Chaotic really. Never simple, but never united.
