JorisPPattyn (14307) - Wilrijk, BELGIUM - MAR 21, 2023UPDATED: MAR 21, 2023 Small almost greyish white head over still, metallic golden beer. Almost overpowering nose of aged (forgotten?) strong white wine. Dessert wine, white port. Very mild, even demure taste, with again sweet white wine. Hints of sultanas, sweetened sherry. Feels better carbonated than it looks, although soft all the same; medium to better bodied. In the end, I'm not that impressed, certainly compared to other Mikkeller wine/beer hybrids (Mielcke & Hurtigkarl, anybody?). It's just too... mellow?
