3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
The beer is amber colored with fine-pored head. It smells malty, cinnamon, sweet and yeasty, slightly resinous wood. Starts with lots of cinnamon, caramel, sweet and yeasty fermented in background, with some aroma hops. The middle part shows a lot of cinnamon, caramel and sweet malty nuances with yeast. Goes into a yeasty-sweet finish with lots of cinnamon and pine wood flavors!

Draft @ 9th Rencontre des Brasseries du Luxembourg Belge. Holy smoke, how did I ever not try this one before?
Superbe surprise que cette petite Forestinne.
De suite, on est envouté par les pousse de sapin, impression en effet de se retrouver en milieu de forêt avec une Forestinne. Note superbe d’aiguille, de cône de sapin donnant un arôme très frais.
En dégustation, pareil résultat une bière qui emmène en forêt, c’est frais, boisé, impression de forêt sous pluie avec un petit caractère malté sur la fin.
