Bottle courtesy of Travlr trying to make a point that some of the Smisje beers don’t suck. This one definitely does not suck. It pours a muddy brown with a thick mocha head that has very good retention/lace. Aroma is cinnamon schnapps. Taste is no joke, a B-52 shot: Bailey’s, Kalhua abound. Really awesome.
2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of Ungstrup. Pours a cloudy dark amber - close to brown - with a tiny, rough off-white head. Aroma is a strange blend of phenols and hops. Medium body, extreme carbonation, caramel, overripe and dried fruits with a massive bitterness. Very alcoholic finish too. Rough and unrefined. Belgian yeast and heavy hops rarely blend well together. 150310
