UPDATED: APR 14, 2008 33 cl bottle from Bieropholie, served just above cellar temp. in a tulip glass.
App.: Medium copper, small light tan head, clear, some lacing.
Aroma: Very sweet – plenty of candy sugar, stone fruits and dried fruits, a bit of chocolate, some alcohol and wood, a little yeasty; hints of “warm” spices – clove stands out; dry, dusty hops.
Palate: Medium bodied, almost no carbonation, silky and smooth.
Flav.: Brown sugar, burnt sugar, some stone fruit, burnt raisins (really), some yeast, a touch of wood and spice; definite bitterness to finish and a touch of alcohol.
Where’d that bitterness come from?? The nose gave NOTHING away. Doesn’t seem to fit, somehow...
