Bottled tasted blind. An unclear red-brown beer with no head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and over ripe fruits. The flavor is sweet mlaty with notes of over ripe fruits, alcohol, hops, and whiskey, leading to a bitter finish. I have no idea why I picked up whiskey in this one - but I did.

(Bottle 37,5 cl) Courtesy of toncatcher/fordest. Pours a very cloudy orangey brown with a small, beige head. Distinct oaky aroma. Extremely full-bodied, low in carbonation. Very sweet caramel flavours - almost a little sticky. Plenty of overripe fruit flavours and oak - wonderful oak. No bitterness but an extremely warming alcohol. Almost cognac-like. A drink for the gods, oh how I dig this. Yum - big time. 190408

Reddish-brown colour and flat. Big wood nose with lots of alcohol. Slightly vinous. Burly, brash on the palate but with a smooth maltiness. A hint of maple helps take the edge off. Well-rounded for such a big beer.

Blind tasting at Papsoes place, another great session, thanks Henrik! Beer #19: Pours hazy dark brown with a fully diminished white head. Solid brandy and wineous aroma. Flavour follows this closely by being solid brandy and mild spiced. Dense alcohol warming feel into the finish. Chocolate and mild roasted malt appears going into a light fruity and malty finish. Nice and smooth wineous/oaky.

Bottle. Hazy orange red coloured with a small beige head. Sweet aroma of caramel and dried fruits with notes of sherry and oxidated notes. Sweet flavour of caramel and dried fruits with notes of sherry and alcohol. Finish of dried fruits and alcohol.
