Share with Bish and Danny. I really enjoyed it, hides the alcohol well. Like me on the way back from Cott.

Smooth, easy, gentle, never 9.38%, never. Not sour, but quite delicious. Was hoping for a little tart but I always am.

Tap at Brewdog Brum. Nope, did not really get this one. Essence of arrowroot biscuit, flat like compressed cardboard packaging. I must be going mad. Sour? Huh? Did not taste strong neither.

33cl bottle from dranken Geers in Oostakker. Light orange body with a off-white head. Strange yeasty aroma(brettanomyces) , a little sour like Geuze and bread. Not sure if i like this or not **

Pours a hazy copper colour with an average sized but very dense and creamy off white head which leaves some good lace all over the glass. Aroma is sweet, fruity, lightly spicy, overall funky is an accurate description which i believe comes from brett. Flavour is dry fruit, bready, alcohol bite, some sweetness and overall not that sour yet funky would be accurate here too. I love how mikkeller plays around with the names and doesnt use a name without meaning. A pretty subtle 9+ abv beer!

Brown and muddy. Has a white head, mostly diminishing. Sweet, freah aroma with notes of alcohol. Flavor starts sugar-sweet, faint acid, moderate bitter finish. Dry, creamy texture.

light fruit and light alcoholic aroma,amber, hazy, off white foam, light sweetness, lightly bitter, medium body, creamy, soft carbonation, light bitter and alcoholic finish.

Bottle - 750mL crowned. Coppery amber with a tall, thick froth tan head. Aroma is funky yeast notes, soft leather, damp wood, earthy notes, and fruit. Taste is sour fruit, damp basement, wood notes, earthiness, wet leather, barnyard, extremely funky yeast, flowers, hay and forest notes. Body is medium with a strong, creamy and bubbly carbonation. Ends with more sour fruit notes, stronger leathery notes, funky yeast, wet wood, moldy basement, old books and barnyard notes. You want funky? You got funky!

Bottle@beach! Orange cloudy. Nose has a orange, slight lemony, twist, which is either from hops or malt/yeast, not sure. Caramel and a sort of a dried bread- kind of funkyness. Body is full, quite soft but dry, bitter, alc pretty well hidden. Good caramel maltiness, some spicyness and a touch of barnyardy flavours in finish. Excellen beer, a fruity, soft, and drinkable brew with a brett finish.
