3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Ruddy mahogany red pour; pillowy, creamy soda foam. Mineral, berry, and earthy toasted malt aroma. Candied pecans, and caramel, but more rustic than rich. A big, warm cinnamon spiciness in bonfire smoke unfolds with a surprising depth. Flavor is gritty, bittersweet pecan at first. Sugary tones of malt shuffle about; crispy hints of apple and candied nuts on basic dark bread. A wink of black malt astringency lingers a bit, with some grapefruity hop, waning into a sharp, sweet middle of baked pears. Thin palate is fittingly not sharply carbonated, retaining smoothness; finishes short, with some earthy sweetness of cinnamon sugar smacking lightly. Casually enjoyable. Thanks Joshua!

3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a clear brown with a 1/4" off white head that disappears really quickly. Very spotty lacing. Aromas of coffee, chocolate, and very light malts. Flavors of roasted malts, slight coffee, and chocolate. Very thin body beer.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20

3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
The Fonefan/Brugmansia Cnudde tasting. Courtesy of Papsoe. Red-brown with notes of roasted malt and caramel. The flavour has notes of roasted malt, a roasted bitterness, hints of coffee and chocolate, hints of flower and nuts and some grapefruit, that makes it rather dry. The overall impression is somewhat thin, and even if a BA is one of the lighter beers, I still prefer them to be smooth, round and pleasant, not edgy like this one.
