(Bottle 33 cl) Cool vintage style bottle and label with a wax seal to guarantee a lagering period of 12 months (sometimes they even let it rest for a stunningly 18 months!).
Dark brown with a reddish glow, almost no head and close to being completely flat. Sediment at the bottom. Extremely complex beer reminding me of some of the best Belgian trappists or noble desert wines. Notes of roasted malt, overripe fruit, cane sugar, dates, prunes, raisins - anything dark and rich and yummy. A truly great beer to be enjoyed in small sips over a long winter night. Had this not been German I probably would’ve termed it a Barleywine. 230401
